I love seeing these gratitude lists @Judas and @Iwillbeok...Such simple things, its such a good reminder that it's easy to draw gratitude from really simple day to day things, it's just about shifting perspectives.
Today I'm grateful for...
- Having some fun uno games with colleagues at work today
- Having a facetime call with my son tonight and hearing about all the fun he's having
- A night cuddling on the couch with my partner and watching a movie

Re: 3 things to be grateful for
Three things I'm grateful for today.............
- A four day weekend that I get to spend with my daughter before she starts high school on Monday.............parenting milestones
- The feeling I'm getting from starting to reconnect with friends I haven't seen for some time. I'm trying to catch up with someone every Tuesday night for dinner to help me feel some connection again
- The feeling I'm getting from getting up at 5am to exercise before work each day.............It's making an unbelievable difference to my overall wellbeing and getting me tired so I go to bed at a reasonable hour

Re: 3 things to be grateful for
So sorry to hear about the accident @PnorkelPW, I hope you and yours are safe and ok...
I love how simple your lists are @Judas and @Lhiver, it helps me to find things to be grateful for and focus on the small things reading this
Today I'm grateful for...
- Being present to be able to guide my son through a really difficult time and help him make sense of things
- Not feeling alone through having to make some of the most difficult decisions of my life
- Being able to not act out in slipping up on my food and exercise routine when things are tough

Re: 3 things to be grateful for
In the last couple of months gratitude has played a big part in my life. I felt like things were piling up and nothing was going my way for a little while but gratitude helped me switch my frame of mind and start to see some positives instead of focusing on the negatives.
So today three things I'm grateful for are............
- gratitude...........I'm grateful for gratitude
- friends who offer me fresh perspective and help me find alternative solutions...............and call me on my bullsh*t
- Simple things like sunny days and beach walks
