I’m pretty sure I’ll be tired AF after group therapy in the evening so here some early afternoon gratitude.

I’m grateful for mantras. I tried last night to listen to one and it made me fall asleep. Thank you Eric @Dazercat for loving mantras, your enthusiasm rubbed off on me 😊🤗

I’m grateful the construction site is in the final stage. They asphalted the street this night, I was up from 1:30 to 4:20 and thought the heavy machines vibrate through my house any second. I’m grateful for a fresh road cover without potholes. I can catch up on sleep with a nap if I want. to.

I’m grateful for adulting. Office work. Chores. I feel relieved and sad at the same time, I handed in the last documents that arrived last week to close my late mums inheritance. Love you mum.

I’m grateful for therapy. A little much today. I discussed the personal questions I’m chewing on with my therapist today. As long as I focus on myself and be kind, aware and compassionate the things I come up with don’t sound as dumb as I thought. I’m grateful I’m completely honest with my therapist and don’t hide thoughts, desires and emotions. I’m grateful I don’t try to be “socially accepted/acceptable” in therapy, just honest, respectful and focused on myself. I never before was so honest, it feels like a milestone and I feel save and at peace. Maybe a bit insecure. With practice the feeling of security and self- confidence will grow. I’m grateful I ask for help and find it. That’s a precious gift 🙏
