Today I am thankful for...

This is a great thread too, I learned about gratitude helping people through bad times from Tony Robbins, or one of the self help gurus. I always carry around a stone that I found on a really nice beach in my pocket and whenever I reach into my pocket to get my keys or my phone or anything that is in there, if I touch the stone then I think of something that I am grateful for. It does bring my a moment of happiness to think of small things that I am grateful for. Most of the time it is "I have a full time job" "I have somewhere to live" "I don't have any major physical health issues" "Someone smiled at me today"

Not really had much chance for gratitude recently, although I guess today I am thankful/grateful for bluelight, for the people that I have met on here that have been so helpful through my recent hard times and who I can truly call friends. This isn't just a website, this is a real community and I am proud and thankful that I am part of it.

So in summary I am thankful for the good friends that I have made through this great community
 
Bluelight is definitely an awesome forum, I'm thankful for how it's transformed my drug use for the better (I've learnt so much about harm reduction!). I mainly lurk for information, I get afraid to post so I don't think I've met any great people through here. :P
But a few times (two years here and 44 posts despite visiting almost daily! o.o) when I swallowed that shyness and asked for help about a breakup, and posted in the suicide thread once, you guys were so lovely and helpful. :)

Anyway today I'm thankful for my own strength and conviction (arrogant! xD).

Thankful for getting a free vet check up tomorrow for my cat since it's a stray I took in.

Ahint: I was the same way. TDS is easily and (perhaps a bit paradoxically) the friendliest forum on this site. Fear not; you're among friends here :)

Today, I'm grateful for rain. We've been getting a lot of it here, and it's hard to believe that just two summers ago it was dry enough to consider the area semi-arid. Well, no more. Trees centre me like nothing else, and few things make me happier than seeing my neighbourhood trees plump and full of water.

im tankful for moments that makes sense

making sense... once was such alien territory
feels good when things just magically (n well not so magically) make sense
