I am thankful for
Notifications OFF
I have just taken 5 minutes out to sit peacefully in my conservatory with a hot chocolate. The Christmas lights are shining, a scented candle is burning and the house is peaceful.
My mind is never still but this evening I am sitting quietly and counting my blessings.
I have a roof over my head, food in the cupboard, clean clothes in the wardrobe. I am mobile and in good health and have a family who love me. I have this forum and all of you wonderful people who I can rely on to support me and show me care and compassion when I need it.
This evening I realise that I need to take more time to appreciate what I have.
What is one thing you are thankful for today?

Hearing that a lovely young friend has had a healthy baby girl and (if I can have two!) spending a final night with our daughter before she flies back to her home far away, and sharing her excitement that she and her partner have found engagement rings for each other (they do it so differently nowadays, don't they?) She is gay and her girlfriend looked terrified when my husband jokingly complained that she hadn't asked his permission!!!!
Brillaint post!

I am grateful for my two daughters and that they are doing well in different ways. My 15 year old daughter hasn't let this horrible situation we find ourselves in get her down and gets in the way of her school life. We had her parents evening tonight and she is doing well.
We are grateful that our other daughter, our 18 year old, is in a much better place than she was last year and looking forward to the arrival of her daughter in April. Pregnancy agrees with her and she has never looked better. She was a vegetarian but the baby has been craving meat, so she looks loads better now she is eating meat again.

I am thankful for food on the table and a roof over my head and that I have a job to enable me to pay for these things. My furbabies who give me joy and love everyday.

It's so true that sometimes we do just think about what we don't have.
I too am grateful for having a roof over my head and food on the table. Supportive family and friends.
Also that I've found a strength I probably knew was there but I've dug deep to find it. Xx
