Three things to be thankful for today

[Doolhof]

Some days it is really hard to find anything to be thankful for when we feel overcome by the darkness and fog of depression. If I look hard enough, I can find something to be thankful for.

I would like to encourage others to write down three things they are thankful for, and to realise there is a sense of hope available to us all. Sometimes it is just a little hard to find!

So my three things for today are:

1: The lovely singing of birds in the morning as they welcome in the new day

2: The ability to read and write

3: A lovely hot shower.

Wishing all the "family" in BB Land a day full of noticing the nice things in life. Kind regards to you all, from Dools.

Thanks, EM. Glad to see your family having some positives, too. It's more than I can respond to individually but very pleased to see the things everyone is writing here - it's been a rough year for everyone, definitely a good time to step back and see what good remains.

Today I am grateful:

1) That I have access to my own (very well stocked and organised) kitchen again after about three months, and can make delicious things.

2) The new coffee machine my partner got us, that we can programme to brew the coffee later, and that keeps it hot for hours - what a luxury!

3) That birds exist.

1. I'm grateful to my darling chicken for spending the past 10+ years with us, what a gift she's been!

2. Grateful that son got a PT job yesterday, where he moved to, and they're training him to become a shift supervisor after one shift omg.

3. My children and grandchildren all had a fun Halloween night at their various events. How sweet for them.

1) For the voice of Jim Grey (lead singer of Caligula's Horse) - it's heavenly.
