What Are You Thankful For?

I am so thankful for this forum and all of the wonderful people here. I am thankful for good friends and a awesome family, what I have left. I am thankful for good days. Today has been one of them.

I am thankful that my friend in hospice is still able to have meals and interact with family and friends. Time is precious for him and I am thankful for every extra day he has.

That my husband understands my chronic illness and mental health. Sometimes I know he gets disgruntled by it, flustered, and he becomes passive aggressive(which I hate), but I know, rationally, he understands. I just wish he would straight talk about it when it gets to him, instead of trying to side step it.

Ooh, oooh, ooooh! :D I got 8.5 hours of sleep last night! I'm really, really, really thankful for that!

I am thankful for the realisation that I have to stop participating in my own suffering by ruminating on my lost opportunities. I have to focus on the positives of my current life and go with that.

I am thankful for the many years I had with my friend. I am thankful he is no longer suffering and in peace. I am sad but thankful for that because I would not be so sad had I not loved him so much.

Momoftwo, I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.

I am thankful for my growing insight.

I'm thankful that my children are still in school and I get to see them at the end of the day. Though they have assured me that they aren't planning on moving out any day soon. They are 14 and 17.

I am thankful for small improvements.

I'm thankful my son passed his driver's test, even if that means more expense for us. At least he wasn't disappointed. Had to deal with his disappointment yesterday when he wasn't put into play very much during practice. Heartbreaking for me to witness.

I am thankful that I am alone today, and have no plans to see anyone, or go out and I am ok with that. I have plans to fill my time today and I am just going to relax. I had another disappointment today and I have accepted it as the way it is. I am letting go of my hopes and expectations to unexpected changes going on around me. I feel content and I am thankful for this.
