What Are You Thankful For?

[Deleted member 12723]

I am so thankful for my daughter and my granddaughters who made this birthday the best one ever. We had a blast making moss gardens in containers. My daughter is so extremely kind and sensitive and thoughtful. I am blown away by her generousity of spirit. She is so worn down by the over a year divorce proceedings and yet she wanted my birthday to be really special. She succeeded. I am so loved by my family. I also got a touching letter from my little granddaughter to put in her journal.

That though the process is gut wrenching I am sticking with it. In whatever way I am making it through the day.

That I had a dream with my mom(who's deceased). Even though I had to wake up. It was a pleasant dream. Wish that it could have gone on.

Thankful that my daughter took me to get my taxes done today. Thankful for the laughter of my family. Thankful for a warm comfortable bed to sleep in. Thankful for the nice days when it is sunny and warm.

I am thankful for my common sense and my gut instincts which are there to protect me. I am paying attention.

I am so thankful for good friends who tell it like it is. I am so thankful for all of the people on the forum.

I am thankful that my healing journey is where it is now. It has taken such a long time to get to the place I am at. But the beginning of therapy and how I felt and all of the lessons I had to learn have not been lost on me.

I think I could write the pamphlet what you can expect when you begin therapy for PTSD and severe trauma and abuse.

What a long hard road it has been.

I am so grateful to be reaping the fruits of my labor all of these years. I still have my set backs but I am bouncing back quicker now.
