What Are You Grateful For Today?

[Let It Be]

I am so grateful that I said no to the so-called friend who wanted me to drive over an hour to see her.

Tomorrow is the day that she is coming this way and it is going to be over 100 here.

I am grateful that I listened to myself. I kept saying who knows what the weather would be like. I don't think my car or myself would like to drive to see her since she couldn't come here.

That I got out of the house, did multiple job searching-related things and got my hair cut. This is a lot for me in the last two weeks.

Grateful for mixed feelings.

The last couple of days I’ve really ****ed it up social with a new friend, being invited and not coming and not answering to phone calls and so on.

This after it was me who took contact when she moved here and said we had to get together. And now with anxiety boiling in my belly there is still joy in my heart often. Because I did take contact, and I believe the rest comes from being able to keep talking with an old friend and also my one relative I have contact with.

Feeling this mix of feelings I hope the joy to soften the anxiety, before I’ve just shut down emotionally or was full of despair for pushing away the people I like the most.
It feels weird but I trust this one.

I am grateful for the choices that I now have that I didn't know about after what happened to me last Sunday at this church.

I am grateful that I do not to have to return there nor do I have to keep using the high school kid who went there to mow my yard.

I am grateful for this friend who listened to me who belonged to this church but I can see it is now time for me to move on.

I am grateful for feeling free from this whole experience and that after all these years of going to this church, no one knew my name.

I am grateful for knowing that something else is in store for me.

I'm very grateful that my BF comforts me when I'm in my 'mood.' He understands all my frustrations, and he is tolerant when I hit bottom and want to give in on somedays.

He's incredable and I hope I don't lose him over this.

I'm grateful I'm still here, and glad that I've been able to get myself doing more things around the house. I'm grateful for the brain injury assoc., sometimes it just feels good dropping in to say "hi" to other people.

I'm grateful for this site, where I can share things.

My pool... not only does swimming give me a sense of confidence, today it was what helped snap me out of the really scary deep level of dissociation I was in. I hadn't wanted to go swimming, it didn't feel safe, especially when everything felt so unreal. I'm glad now that I went. Diving into the cold water really helped. :)

I am grateful that the kid that was mowing my yard will not be coming back.

I am grateful that I was able to vent and smile at the same time when I discovered that this kid had been putting some of the lawn clippings into a bush where they definitely did not belong.

I am grateful that I am no longer looking the other way and taking care of me.
