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.

For cleaning up the house and having it clean for a few hours before my kids were back from school.
Fee rays of sunshine on a very rainy day.
A really great cup of coffee. You know how sometimes it tastes ok, or passable and at times it’s just perfect? So today was that “perfect” cup of coffee for me.
