The Grateful Thread

My general immune system and my will power which allows me to power through those rare time when I do feel a little ill.

I know that I've already posted related to this but today I am thankful for the Temple, and here's why specifically today.

I show up to work with a small headache. I decide that it might go away so I don't even mention it. It gets worse, I get vision problems, nausea, fatigue, the works. :sick:

My reaction before I came here: I must need caffeine and food. Have Mt. Dew and pizza. Get sicker. Still not go home because I'm stubborn. Do work poorly and feel like death by the end of the day. :sick: :sick:

My reaction now: Maybe I need some sugar. Have orange juice. Helps a little. Suck it up until lunch and eat light but substantial food. Have a Caesar Salad. Meditate. Got better, can work effectively, and am happy for rest of day.

It might not all be directly related to the Temple, but I am definitely a better, healthier person because of this place. Thank you all of you.

Grateful for the existance of youtube, and all the material it can provide for a student of amateur psychology and philosophy :laugh:

I am thankful for Goken, who is apparently having the exact same day as me and trying their best right along side me.

Very empowering.

Thankful for encouraging friends, and for honesty, even when it's terrifying. Having a place to come to when everywhere else is too much to handle is a very new feeling, and one I intend to foster, in myself, and for all those I meet through this place.

5 more days of work until 2 days off in a row.
I bought new shoes before work last night. My feet are much happier!
My kid is going to a friend's house to socialize.
I have boca burgers that I'm going to eat for lunch.
And the sun is out

I'm grateful for my friend Steph.... 2 decades and still my closest friend.

I am thankful for a warm day with sunshine.

Amazing weather and hopefully equally good photos from a nice afternoon at the zoo

I am grateful for trying to be grateful.

Trying to light a fire is better than no fire.

At least I have the spark..
