What Are You Grateful For Today?

I'm kinda inspired by @Ms Spock here... I mean, this seems a weird thing to be grateful for, but well, I am, or rather, I hope I will be one day, I'm keeping the faith...

I'm grateful I was able to get through yesterday as well as I could. For some stupid reason I decided to write in my Trauma Diary first thing in the morning. It was brutal. It brought up all kinds of bad feelings. But I'm grateful I was able to sit with a lot of really uncomfortable, sad, depressing, guilty feelings all day, and I didn't completely meltdown. I could have chickened out and stayed home, but I didn't, I ended up going out as I had planned the day before, and I went to the gym, too, and that was good. This stuff is usually impossible for me. I write, I freak out, I meltdown, I'm a mess. But I think I did really good yesterday. I was really sad and a mess and all that... but I didn't completely crash. I kept moving. I hope all this work is going to make a difference one day. Or maybe it already has? I'm crossing my fingers it's all worth it.

The other thing... I'm very grateful for this forum and all the wonderful and supportive people here.
