In the interest of "growing the good" (what you focus on tends to grow)
I thought we could have a thread dedicated to all those small and not so small GOOD things that we encounter every day.
No day is so bad that we can't find one good thing to take note of, to be grateful for, to enjoy (or at least remember when we were able to feel enjoyment of it)
I will start:
today, I am grateful that I have great friends in my life.
I notice that I am able to sew, even though I don't feel the same way I used to about it (it was one of my biggest pleasures) At least I am now able to figure out the steps to sew, whereas at other times during my recovery, It was beyond me to figure out where to even begin. this is progress!! I am glad for that!
I am happy that I have a home and food and clothing. these are not small things, although I often take them for granted.
I am happy that I have this forum, to connect with others on this journey, to get and give support and advice.
OK who's next?
