I’m grateful it’s June, life always seems easier to deal with in the hopefully summery days ahead, looking forward to picnic’s, having drinks and eating and laughing with friends under a hot sun, finally digging out my summer wordrobe.
Waking up on a summer’s day and being happy, happier than you have been in a long time, being free of self doubt and the baggage that has been weighing you down.
For friends – one’s that have always been in your life, but also the one’s you have only known for a short time – esp when you tried to push them away then realising they were only trying to be there for you all along – And of course i am exceedingly grateful for button’s :D
I dont pretend to know what love is for everyone, but i know what it is for me, love is knowing all about someone and still wanting to be with them, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself including the things you are ashamed of, feeling comfy and safe with someone but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.Welcome to the boards Eva :D
I love your description of love, it sums it up perfectly.
Wow there is so much to be grateful for I don’t even know where I’d begin. In this world filled with doom and gloom and negativity it’s easy to be sucked into focusing on the negative and living in a place of fear.
I am grateful for waking up this morning for it means I am alive.
I am grateful for being woken by the sound of my cat caterwauling and trying to batter the bedroom door down for it means I can still hear – and at least one living being in this world is still glad to see me even if it is only to have her food bowl filled! :lol:
I am grateful for seeing the fright that looked back at me from the mirror for it means I can still see. :shock:
I am grateful for the shower that helped me look semi-presentable again for it means I have the luxury of running water and electricity.
I am grateful for looking at the kitchen and thinking what a mess for it means I had a good evening with food on the table and I have a kitchen of my own to clean.
I am grateful for the phone call that made me run a little late this morning for it tells me that someone was thinking of me and I feel cherished and loved.
I am grateful for having to go to work this morning for it means I have a job.
I am grateful for the rain that got me wet for it means the grass will be green, the flowers will bloom, and hopefully there will continue to be enough water for the showers that stop me from looking such a fright in the morning! :lol:
I am grateful for the friend who popped in with her daughter to share their news for it means that I have friends that want to share the good times as well as the bad.And that’s just the day so far!
For everything that seems negative there is a flip side, it’s up to us whether we want to make that little bit of effort to turn things around in our own minds.
Jen forgot to say she is also gratefull for me !!! :lol:

All of the above and Navy Rum . . . Ello sailor :D
Except the job of course. 8)
I have just heard that a very dear friend lost her fight to cancer in the early hours of this morning. I am grateful that I knew her and shared so much laughter and joy with her and was able to be there to support in the darker times. She was truly an inspiration and without her I would not be where I am now.
RIP Sharon my dear friend xxxx
But in all seriousness – im gratefull for the use of my legs, my sight and hearing.
Greatfull i have a wonderfull family who love me and are there for support when i need them.Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down on us to let us know they are happy. Although it’s difficult to see beyond the sorrow may looking back help comfort you tomorrow xxxxxxxx
Life can be soo very difficult but if we were grateful for the things we have allready our health hopefully, friends family, realising we are all blessed in some way we would be more content.
