It's easy to get caught up in all the problems that complicate our lives; sometimes we forget just how lucky we are to have what it is we do have. I've found it grounding, personally, to take a moment periodically to ruminate over the things in my life that bring me health and happiness, and actively appreciate those things.

So, what good things in your life go underappreciated when it is you get lost in the struggles you are faced with?

I'll start:



I'm glad I'm a part of this glorious existence.
I'm glad for the summer sun, and the wistful and cheerful feelings it conjures in me.
I'm glad to have loving people in my life; my family, my friends, and myself.
I'm glad I get to go to school.
I'm glad that libraries exist, and they are free to use.
I am happy that I do not have to face more oppression than I do now.
I'm happy I have three loving cats, who I love.
I'm glad that the person I will most love in this world exists somewhere, right now.

I could go on for a while- I've done lists of 100 things I am grateful for in the past- but I think it's your turn.

:3




Psst... I'm also happy to know the good people here. ;)

1. My parents and the fact that they chose me over themselves all their life.

2. My best friend who made my high school experience a memorable and less traumatic one

3. My mind and that I can think

4. My ability to be decent at just everything I set my mind to

5. The fact that I only walked away with a bad leg after my accident when it could have been much worse

6. The fact that I'm a dual citizen - means I get the best of both worlds [it's true :)]

7. That I had the physical and mental capabilities and got the opportunities to make something of myself so that one day I can do something to alleviate their suffering [I hope I get the opportunity]

8. That I go to bed every night so that I can live to fight another day.

9. Making new amazing friends on PerC

10. Getting a chance to re-do my life ... so what if I'm 30.

[Lillith]

1. My girlfriend

2. My best friend

3. My other friends besides my best friend

4. That I'm as healthy as I've ever been

5. My damn muse is finally working...Yay for being able to focus on my writing again!

I am grateful that I have a husband who loves me and cherishes me, someone who I can have fun with and be myself around. Someone who i can enjoy everything with and talk to anything about.

I am grateful for yummy food!

I am grateful for all of my pets. I love my babies.

I am grateful that my parents are so supportive of me even after everything they put me through...that things could just go back to being normal again.

I am grateful that I am alive, just getting to experience life, even the crappy parts.

I am grateful for the beauty that is nature.

I am grateful for my fast metabolism because I'd probably be a fat cow without it. Just kidding.

I am grateful to be living in this country (America).

I am grateful for the very close relationship I have with my younger brother. He's one of my best friends.

I am grateful for my older sister even though she gets on my nerves sometimes.

I am grateful for the community that makes up Perc.

I am grateful for the internet and books, information and awesome stories at my fingertips.

I am grateful for all of these things and so much more. I could go on forever.

I suppose I should be grateful for my entire existence, financial independence, fairly supportive family (now...it took long enough >_>) and stuff I own.

But its hard to be sincere when all my friends leave and never talk to me and leave me feeling forgotten and alone.
