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.

Today I am grateful for:

1) My family, friends, partner and dog

2) I am grateful that I have been working hard and studying everyday which will pay off (rather than feeling overly stressed which I used to feel sometimes!)

3) That I was able to spend time with one of my best friends yesterday

Today I am thankful for:

1. My new glasses that bring the two overlapping images closer together than the last pair and make it easier for me (I have double vision from a childhood head injury)

2. The fruit and vegetable market where I shop. It is by the water, and is bustling and interesting. It is such a different experience from the supermarket, it always cheers me up and expands my world.

3. Robotic arms with sensory feedback (new research in science magazine this month). I do not need this, but for those who do, this is life changing. Robotic arms have been around for a while but to be able to get tactile feedback to your brain when you touch things with your prosthesis is revolutionary! I am so glad this work is being done. I remember practicing to do things with my feet when I was a child, so that I would be prepared if I lost my hands (seems odd now, but we did have a family friend who had lost his right hand at work).

Today I am thankful that I went to work and came home to all my grown children being safe and well.

ON a full round I am thankful that I am able to go to work and able to function. (I remember when I could not)

Hang in there people.

I am Thankful for:

1. Getting up before my alarm stopped.

2. My flower that I planted 3 weeks as a seed, that I continued watering even though I did not except to grow has emerged from the soil... a seedling tray I have on a table near a window. Sometimes life has pleasant surprises.

3. My sweet dog is healthy.
