I just want to say hello to you all! I’m glad to be here! It’s been a long road for me, lots of trauma for 27 years as well as therapy and medications. I’m in a tough place right now not knowing where my life will take me in the next year but I’m taking it day by day. Some days are good, some are okay, and others are just straight up difficult. Today I was doing alright but even though I didn’t get to the gym like I should have. Around mid day I got another difficult rejection, I’ve had quite a few of those in the last couple months. I can say it’s not my best day but it’s not over.
So my question: I know we have all our own issues going on but I’d love it you all would share with me something that made you smile today?
And if you feel like it I’d also love to hear anything that you are grateful for today.
I’ll start:
Today I read a comic/joke by Nathan Pyle, and I actually laughed out loud.
Today I am grateful that I am safe and comfortable.

Today, planning on what to wear for our office xmas party made me smile. I love fashion.
I am very grateful that despite having depression, I am still alive and thriving to live life in a positive way not matter how problematic some days can be in my life. I just know I have to be strong for me and the people who loves and cares for me.
Today I played on the floor with a family member’s dog. This HUGE dog pinned me to the floor, licking my ears and face. I almost peed my pants bc I was laughing so hard...which, of course, made me laugh even more, and the dog even more intent on continuing to lick my face.
I’m grateful for my family, my health, my spouse, our jobs, and that we get to see family next week for Thanksgiving. 🦃 🍁 🦃 🌽
....and grateful that I already knocked-out most of my Christmas shopping online!
I feel for you having those yucky days...yet it's great when the good ones come.
My smile today was...after not talking to my 37 year old son for 4 years, long story won't bore you, he showed up at my door....that's was more than a smile, a thrill, had a wonderful visit, except to find out he's been diagnosed with bipolar...we'll help one another now.
I'm grateful for the roof over my head, food to eat and clothes on my back..
May your day sparkle!
Dump trucks of groovy love, peace, light, joy and hugs for you!
Today I went to the gym, and therapy, and I just feel more joy seeing all these lovely responses, and now back I am going to face the work in front of me.
Hello BetaTogetha, I must say I like your positive attitude in all your challenges. I know can understand that after 27years of one challenge to another you are a survivor and an overcomer. I know some days are hard to push through, but you drag yourself through anyway.
For me I have been through lot of rejection and betrayals. I have been through health issues and shame, but one thing am grateful todays is the gift of life and peace in my heart. Had spent days at hospitals, when I wake up and I can breathe on my own and also get out of my bed so for me its feels like a jackpot for me. When I think of this, I feel happy. I also watched a movie with a happy ending. Feel good movies is one of my therapy. Keep hope alive
I don't have a clue where my life is gonna go next year, either. I quit my soul sucking job a few months ago to take one looooong break and to recover. (My friends are jealous but proud of me.) I'm about to start looking for a new job because I'm actually starting to get bored.
I was watching a youtube video of one of my favorite webcomics with novice voice actors earlier today... They were a little rough at first, but they all got better as the series progressed. It was funny to me because their voices were almost exactly how I imagined the characters would sound. They really nailed the creepily chipper guy. XD
Also I'm grateful for big, fuzzy socks. I'd never have toasty toes without them!
