Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

01-10-2015 11:27am#1I thought this was the right place for a gratitude thread.
I guess I'll start already. I'm grateful for:
- Life. I'm glad to be here. Sometimes it's rough but the rough patches are worth it because when it's great it's really great.
- My family. My beautiful sisters. My cousins. My aunts. My uncles. My stepdad.
- My deceased relatives who meant a lot to me. I'm glad for the time I got to spend with them.
- My wonderful friends. When you go through tough times you quickly realise who these people are. The laughter and joy my friends have brought into my life is immeasurable. The support I had from them when I was going through absolute hell was just phenomenal. I will always feel indebted to them for that.
- My health. Being able to hear, see, smell, taste and touch. Being able to get of bed in the morning. Being able to exercise and play sports.
- My housemates. I've lived with some nuts, it's so nice to have nice housemates. I love being able to come home and just chill in the communal areas of the house instead of being stuck in my room avoiding the people I live with.
- The adorable doggy that I live with. He's brought a lot of sunshine into my life.
- Being able to support myself. I may not be rolling in it but I get by.
- Being able to drive and get from A to B.
When I think of more I'll put them up. There's so many things in life to be grateful for.
Happy Thursday beautiful people. Tell me what you're grateful for. 11

My parents - two best people in the world. Supportive, non-judgmental, loving and kind, don't try to live their dreams vicariously through their children, and as I've got older have become more like friends.
My dog - sometimes (usually) coming home to her is the best part of the day
My job - may not always like it, but a guaranteed wage means I can do so much - pay my college fees, help my parents with their mortgage, and even though I am not loaded, being able to buy a cheapy bottle of wine on a Tuesday just for the sake of it, or a toy for my dog, without having to be accountable for it - the freedom of having choices I guess.
My few close friends - worth more than a million acquaintances
My health! I can see, hear, walk around unaided. A privilege denied to many. 0 -

For my friends, new, old and ancient
They are epic.
For my job that allows me so much travelling
The wonderful Internet.
That I always have such good sleep and a safe warm place to live. Its something I'll never take for granted.
A sense of peace.0 -
Just today I was "counting my blessings" and in a bit of awe at how lucky I/we are to live to an age where things make sense in a way they didn't years before. Not maturity so much as grace, suddenly I just "got it". Too many don't get the chance for things to be revealed.
Sounds weird but I just felt this big burst of gratitude, gave a bit of a buzz that hasn't worn off 0 -

There is a lot of dark stuff in the news at the moment and it's hard to sometimes concentrate on the good stuff. With that in mind, I thought I'd share a thread where we could post something that we are grateful for or that makes us happy, a bit like a collective gratitude journal
I'll start...I am grateful that I have a big and happy family of parents, siblings, niblings and in-laws and that we all live close enough to each other to see each other fairly regularly. We had a lovely family day yesterday and even though not everyone was there, it was still lovely to spend time together. Also, going for a walk in the park with my siblings and niblings on Saturday was a lovely experience. The niblings are all very young so hopefully it was the first of many 0 -

Just now,, always my snug b
ed! Never take anything for granted,... Always keep the blessings and provisions you have close to your heart.. When tears threaten? Give thanks for tissues! Laugh at it!
For knitting needles and yarn and the knowledge that this simple pleasure will raise a little money for those who need even food... for in giving we gain.... oh and keep me warm on the coldest day
