Grateful. Today I will do the things I didn’t do yesterday. I will deal with things to make the future cleaner and meaningful.

I am lucky to have good people in my circle. I cannot keep ignoring that and refusing to ask them for things - even emotional support. Likely, they will be quite shocked that I haven’t. I need to keep that meaningful. I am grateful that “asking for help” is always something I have told other people to do. I have taught that asking for help actually grows the spirit of the person you ask. It’s true.

Much love.

So very true. Don’t let that interaction change you – you help so many and are so loving / caring. We can’t reach all (especially the ones that don’t want connection). :people_hugging:

Thursday gratitude.
I’m grateful I woke up early and well rested. I’m grateful I puttered around in the morning, I took some winter cloths to the farm and put away summer cloths at the townhouse. I’m grateful the drive was ok, I got tired at the end and was happy to be safe home again at the farm.

I’m grateful for all the workers, they do a great job. It already looks lightyears better and isn’t even finished. The facade will look marvellous, the stonewalls already do, they are finished. Now the pathways get graveled and will need some truckloads of gravel.

I’m grateful I fetched some wood and heated the stove, the weather was grey today and I still feel cold every now and then. Grateful I can sleep off the anesthesia until tomorrow noon and if I don’t feel like driving I can call my therapist for a phone session. I feel a bit overwhelmed from everything I had to do today, meeting, decisions, deliveries, organizational stuff, construction sites can be demanding, especially when I’m groggy. It was a lot today and I’ll be to bed very early. ODAAT

Happy 900 days @Cjp :+1::hugs::sunflower::tada:

I’m incredibly grateful for Mo Hayder, RIP.
I’m currently reading her last book now, released posthumously. What an incredible woman and talent and just sheer brilliance. I’ve loved Mo forever, she’s been a twenty year love affair for me. Many of her books were turned into thrillers/horror cusp TV or film adaptations. You’ve probably watched them and thought nothing of the woman, the legend. She was taken way too soon, but her eager, immense swell of a spark-bright mind lives on forever. The woman was into everything and wrote about Tokeloshes, free diving into caves, fartlek, nomadic walkers and Japanese gangs and urban legends and death and immorality and realness, things I never even knew existed… She lit a fire for me to sit besides in rapture every time I visited her work. I’ve thought about her constantly the past two days since starting ‘Bonehead’ and in my soul I feel gratitude towards this amazing woman. She’s there, with The Cranberries, in my toolkit. Love you Mo, you brilliant sod.

I 'm grateful to be sober and tucked into bed after work.

I’m grateful to know that my current funk will eventually pass and i just need to ride the wave. Hormones are no joke.

I’m grateful the weekend is coming and I can spend time with the fur babes and my sister.

I’m grateful to be here with everyone :two_hearts:
