I'm grateful for the nice sunny weather we are having just now, it wakes me and makes me feel alive.

OK I might be lonely and isolated from the rest if the world, but there's something about being out in the sun, that makes me glow from the inside, and makes me feel alive.

Thanks @Gadgie, you have a beautiful way with saying that... made me smile... grateful you got a day in the sun!

I am grateful for he ability to recognize my head is spinning. [ In context, in response to gossiping person at relative's work (we work in same company) bringing up scenario from 30 years ago. Worse yet, she involved also her son, (he) kept something I made 30 years ago, during SI & start of ptsd, & she has details mostly wrong. Creates fear this (these details) will come bck to my/ relative's employer. She did this the Easter before last, I had a near-super-meltdown. :( ]
Relative as well to the above, I am grateful for:
-remembering the words I wa told for dealing with this situation again, it was 30+ years ago/ "get over it! (them), I mean come on/ get real/ Get a life !!". And (for me) to "protect my heart" (too), that (I) have to, not optional.
-it was 30+ years ago
-I was able to get past it last time (Easter 2015)
-the words given
-the support, perspective given
-the fear reduced
-the reminder I have to make it a priority to organize together helpful reminders/ mental come-backs for myself
-the awareness the whole thing (time) had/ has such a bad connotation, & triggers, that I never did that hobby again. Yet I love it.
Grateful too it explains not being able to succeed at starting it again (form of art).
-Grateful my mom let me do it despite mess, etc. Remember sweet things she did to encourge it.

-grateful:
-it's only showers not Tstorms atm
-music
-big cup of coffee
-getting courage to get my hair cup (hopefully)
- @rainbow1 's avatar, I love it :) . (Can't write on profile page)
-a bed
-friends
-kindness
-candles
