The Gratitude Thread

I am grateful I have so many friends who care for me and still stick with me despite being very mentally ill and having a developmental disability that makes me still like a teenager mentally in some areas. I am very lucky to have them.
 
I'm grateful to have woken up today. I'm also grateful to witness the little march of baby mystery snails out of their eggs last night. 💕
I love experiences like that.

I am grateful to be able to enjoy the scent of fresh evening air this summer.
 
I’m really grateful with how patient and kind everyone has been with me lately with my bothering and random thoughts posts. I’ve been starting to worry that I’ve been annoying again because I’ve been so anxious about so much during this fair. I’ve been having so much fun and have been so excited. I worry my anxiety is dragging the mood down a little.

Also grateful for the kindness and patience with me in general. Been struggling on and off still and since stuff changed with me and my best friend, I’ve been a wreck. There is never any need for reacts or anyone to read what I wrote, so it means a lot when I see them. Thanks everyone. 🙏
 
I am more grateful for everyone in my life than I can put into words, and that includes both the past and present. There have been an innumerable amount of people who have helped me in my life and kept me on my path when I started to stray too much. There isn't enough words in the dictionary to express how grateful I am for everyone, even the people on this site.

I'd like to think that I'm a good person and give it back too, and in the future I'll continue to give it back. One hundred fold.
 
I can get rather aloof and so I'm not very good at actually checking my notifications. (here's a photo of 51 notifications that have now piled up...yikes).

But I'm grateful to hang around this community. It's pleasant. Even though I'm not the most personally interactive, it's kinda in a 'happy to be here' sorta way.

Reviving this one!

❀ I'm grateful I was able to spend Easter with my family, and I'm especially grateful for their health and happiness (though always hoping their health and happiness are as good as possible).
❀ I'm thankful I've had a few days break, and that I can now focus on one work project instead of 2-3!
❀ Repeating some things I've mentioned previously, though it doesn't hurt to be conscious of it, I'm grateful for my best friend, and their kindness, warmth, support, silliness, and patience. I'm grateful for my other friends too, as well as my acquaintances, my colleagues, and other people who offer me support (and I hope I offer them the same where possible/applicable).
❀ Always, I'm grateful for my family.
 
A few things today that I'm grateful for:
  • My wonderful colleagues and our conversations -- their care, assistance, and understanding
  • The warmer, sunny weather. It's a natural energy/mood booster
  • I spent some time gardening yesterday for the first time in a while and woke up sore, though I was also reminded of how thankful I am for my body propelling me forward each day
  • My pup for bringing so much love and light into my life. I cherish every moment with her
 
This is such a good thread idea! I'm having a bit of a bad day, but I want to turn that around.

- I'm grateful for my friends and the people who have patience with me, despite my issues with my mental health. I'm especially grateful for my best friend, who has consistently shown up for me.

- I'm grateful that my dog Noodle is here with me, and that there are still things she gets excited for. She's an old lady (16 this year), and although it has been difficult adjusting to her declining health, I'm happy that she's here right now.

- I'm grateful to have a place to live that's safe and to have my needs met.

- I'm grateful for the outside. I've been trying to push myself to read or even just sit out on the porch for a few minutes each day. Feeling the sun's warmth, hearing the birds, and watching all the bugs fly around makes me feel more grounded.
 
Today I am thankful for so many things but I’ll highlight some of the majors.

  • Just being able to still financially okay after such a long sabbatical away from work.
  • I’m grateful my introduction back into the workforce has been receptive and hopefully will bring opportunity.
  • I’m thankful for my family’s health, as I continue my journey with medical ocd and anxiety, I am so happy that another day has passed that we are alive and thriving! And hopefully stays that way for a long time!
  • I’m thankful for my puppy girl, she is the light of my life and I am ready to go to ware for her at any moment.
