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.

Today I am thankful for..

The dull headache that should end my migraine..

The refreshingly beautiful rain...

My fur girls...they slept and laid next to me with patience while I was not well enough to really care for them, with my migraine...

Today I am thankful for:

1) The fact I have been having hope for the future! Job-searching can be so tough and draining so the fact I am more positive now - I am so grateful for that!

2) For my friends, partner, pet and family!

3) For being able to spend quality time with my partner the past two days for his birthday
