well......ive been having a rough ride on the roller coaster we call life lately, and i know of several others who are too....and something Illu said to me stuck in my mind......"think of the things you have to be grateful...that youre breathing for a start" lol
and hes right of course.....its easy to dwell on the bad stuff and miss the good.......sooooo......
What do you have to be grateful for?
that i have all my beasties....all of whom love me no matter what....(mostly lol lol)
that i can draw and write and sing and do all the other things i was gifted with the talents for
that i have all these wonderful people on this site to bleat to whan i need to
that i can still feel enough to hurt, and havent hardened and retreated into cynicism
and yeah......that im breathing lol lol

I actually thought about this last night. I've been quite depressed for years, and only now I'm starting to feel a lot happier. Now, whenever I'm feeling down I'll think about all those things that I have to be grateful for.
- My wonderful family! I love them so much and I know that they love me back. :)
- My bestest friend in the world (the little hobbit that you know as Bramblerose Bunce).
- Being healthy.
- Being able to walk, talk, think, all those things that you take for granted.
- Having a fairly good life (I can't complain, really). :)
- Lots of other things. There are always more good things than bad things, even if you notice the bad things more a lot of the time.
Obviously I'm very happy about TTT!! I can't believe it's only about 3 months away!! I've waited for it for a year and now it's nearly here! Unbelievable!! :whoohoo: :whoohoo:
