Gratitude

So today, I would like you to consider with me five things that you are grateful for.

When things are getting really difficult, it's often so easy to forget about the things that you have going for. When you let the big grey cloud of depression follow you around all day like you have a dementor or something constantly by your side (I'm a Harry Potter fan). It can be really difficult to enjoy the little things, and become, almost obsessed, with the negatives.

But, there are so many things that are positive that go on all around us - so not only could I not see today because it was sunny and I had to swap my glasses for sunglasses, but sometimes I think we can see through negative-tinted eyes.

 

So, as I'm trying to focus on the positives, here's my list of today's FIVE THINGS THAT I AM GRATEFUL FOR:

1. I have some really lovely housemates who, without realising sometimes, brighten even my darkest days
2. I actually have a boyfriend. There is a man out there who actually ... fancies ... me ???
3. Public transport - I could just hop on a train anywhere anyhow and just go
4. Talking of going places, the fact that I am so close to the beautiful Belgium which is filled with happiness and waffles
5. Cats - on the way back from Tesco yesterday, a teenie friendly black cat let me pet it

Bye for now!
