SN, awesome thread!

Being grateful is such an important thing to do. I mean where does it end if you are not? You buy a unit and are happy for a while, then you want a house, so you buy a house and are happy for a while then you want a bigger house so you do that but when does it end? When is someone actually happy with what they have?

This is why you starting this thread is so totally brilliant because it will make people think about what they are grateful for.

Me (not using family which i am totally grateful for but they are to obvious for me):

1) My old in need of renovation house. Yes i cannot wait until it gets a good making over but i am very happy with it at the moment.

2) My dog - classical little dog who walks into walls and aint the sharpest tool in the shed but is awesome.

3) My health - having been to very dark places, it is good being happy again. The simple emotion that people take for granted so much, happiness. People take it for granted and I used to, but not anymore.

I'm grateful for the people on this forum.

Certainly the regulars the BV's and the CC's, but more importantly all the newbies and short-timers. After these are the people that make this more than a learning forum, but also a support forum and a friendship forum. And a place where I feel valued.

I'm grateful for my loving, caring & supportive husband. He always has my back.

I feel truly blest my daughter who lives in another state keeps in touch daily. Her love is freely given & I treasure her.

Next I'm grateful for our new(ish) puppy. He's a great big sook & climbs into my lap for his naps. Just like having a baby again!! (He's not the one in my profile pic)

I appreciate the support & encouragement found here on BB.

But as for what makes me feel good about being me, that's a bit harder. Maybe someday I might figure that out.
