The Highlight of Your Day thread

Re: The Highlight of Your Day thread

I've had a really big highlight today and one I wanted to share because not many people outside of here seem to get how big these moments can be (with a warning that it's a deep one).

Today, for the first time in what feels like forever, I realised that I am choosing to be here not just needing to be here. Today I felt ok being on my own and I wasn't scared because today I feel like I am worth it to not give up on myself. Today I realised and really believed that there will be more to my life than surviving each day, and that even if it doesn't happen tomorrow, one day it will happen. Today I felt hopeful that I can recover from the awful mess that's happened and that I can get back up again. I know that there will be ups and downs and rounds and rounds, but I want to be here and I am hopeful that feeling can stay now.

Today there was a rainbow and it felt good.

Hi @CheerBear, how wonderful you found that inspired and hopeful feeling today, in a deep way. What a beautiful rainbow! Smiley Very Happy Heart

My highlight was taking a bus ride to a local shopping centre and meeting up with a friend who drives. We then went to the beach and had a long walk along the foreshore. Smiley Happy

@CheerBear  That's really huge. I get how big that is. It's not somewhere I am yet  but I hope to be one day. Thank you for sharing. I really couldn't find the right picture or thought to describe the enormity of what you just posted except is bought a tear to my eye. I am so very pleased for you. 

Sending so many hugs 💜🤗

You gals rock @Mazarita@CheerBear

my highlight was finally moving my butt out of my bed and taking my dog to the park. I've threatened to do it for days. It was like a huge weight lifted, that I'd finally done it 😳:face_with_rolling_eyes:. 

This was one of the highlights.

Re: The Highlight of Your Day thread

Awesome, @Former-Member. I love seeing the dogs at the beach, they are so happy! I also love the sunset, the salmon pink in the ripple clouds and broad ray of gold. Beautiful. Heart

@CheerBear, hugs! So glad you came back. Smiley Very Happy

Re: The Highlight of Your Day thread

Thanks @Mazarita. My dog's happy place is the beach. He loves swimming. It was the array of colours and cloud formation that got me too. 

Here's hoping you have some lovely highlights tomorrow too 💜🤗

Re: The Highlight of Your Day thread

My highlight today was getting into bed just now. 😀😴
I love my big soft comfy bed and weather is cooler to sleep.
Nighty night @CheerBear @Former-Member @Mazarita
