A True and Tried way to feel better - even in a pandamic!

Sorry Applegran
Hope that you don't mind me barging in like that with my party poppers!

Happy birthday Lucca! Enjoy yourself.

Thanks ! But you’re a mere spring chicken I believe! Somebody snuck in and wrinkled up my face and made me 71 ......

Searching for me ?. I’ve been sounding off on the vaccine misinformation threads quite a bit !!?

I am always grateful for even small things and think that writing them down daily helps to see the best in life. I agree it's a bit like counting blessings and looking on the bright side.
Friends, dogs, nature are just a few.
(I could moan I have no pension for 5 years yet, but what's the point?)
Nice gentle thread Applegran. I am grateful.

Lucca! I've been searching high and low for you!
Happy Birthday!
Hope that you have a marvelous day xx
(It was my birthday yesterday btw, we really do seem to have quite a bit in common )

I dont keep a diary but I do try to check in with myself now and again and think about how fortunate I am and how far I've come.

I’m grateful for the cards and gifts I received today including a bag left in porch for me containing flowers chocolate expensive wine and a fillet steak !!

Even if you don't decide to keep a Gratitude Diary, it's a lovely way to end the day 'in your head'.
Just before you go to sleep (or try to!) go through all the good things that you've got.
It's the same as Counting your Blessings; as old as the hills - whichever is no bad thing.
Thank you for reminding me of this Apple.

So many things.
Good health, the love and closeness from family and friends, a regular pension in the bank, good food, warmth and BOOKS to read!
?

What a good idea I am grateful for my life now and my family. I look out and see birds and squirrels in the garden which I adore watching. The trees coming into bud raises my spirits and my cosy home with something always bubbling on the stove.

Just can’t think of three things this early on a horrible wet windy morning,

I think I should keep a gratitude diary. At the moment I’m very grateful that my DIL is better. She was rushed to hospital at the weekend suffering with chest pains which have been diagnosed as a virus. Not that virus! Also I stood outside with my DS yesterday while he opened his birthday presents.

Lovely idea

I'm grateful that I received my first jab yesterday.
