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.

I took a break during the Christmas period but I am happy that I am back to now posting what I am thankful for. I really like to integrate it into my routine because it gives me such good feelings! This year I am going to try to be more specific about what I am grateful for. I am always grateful for my family, friends, partner and dog but I am going to try to really learn how to appreciate different things too!

1) I am thankful that I have the luxury to take a day off for myself when I need it. I can always feel myself 'recharging'.

2) I am grateful that I have food in my fridge and leftover food from yesterday. When I have been watching shows like 'Maid' it really made me appreciate what I have and not to take it for granted.

3) Today I am grateful for music - I have been listening to it a lot this morning and it really makes me immerse myself into it. A form of mindfulness I guess?
