Three things to be thankful for today

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.

1) Yesterday night I found myself reflecting on 2020 and the challenges I went through. It made me appreciate where I am now. I am so much happier 🙂

2) I am grateful for my loving family and partner

3) I am so grateful for my friends being patient with me while I have been studying!

Great to hear your partner drove you down and back!! That's great.

1. It's been over 5 weeks since I've had a glass of wine.

2. The veggie patch is growing.

3. Fresh herbs with breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Being reminded of an old freind

A supervisor was very reasonable today, I'd been apprehensive in advance

I'm still able to learn new tricks
