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.

I'm grateful I found a way to write.
I'm thankful for enough food to eat today, especially choc cream donuts.
I'm not sorry for enforced anti-sharing.

I'm thankful for being in quarantine, I am safe, I can have COVID tests, I am having a two week break from work...something that I had not considered possible due to working as a casual.
I can use this time to give my mind a rest, recharge and look after myself.
I have this opportunity to make positive changes in how I decide to spend my time.

I am deeply grateful for those Aussies who donate their blood.
I am thankful for the Rich losing cents to the dollar, whilst the Poor give their blood for cents.
I am thankful for the determined who can work 20 hour days for five years straight to develop a Gold Mined Metaphor.

Today I am thankful for
1) Modern technology so I can keep in touch with people while in quarantine
2) This forum with all the amazing people in this community
3) My supervisor sending a text to ask how we are managing, I really appreciated that!
