On hiatus recently, I was introduced to the positive effects of gratitude on mental health. I was skeptical at first, but it really does seem to help. How Gratitude Changes You and Your Brain
So this thread is dedicated to gratitude. It can be gratitude to God, another member, or just like a random grateful thought, e.g. life would be rather awkward without toilet paper... I’m grateful for the in invention of toilet paper.
Enjoy.

Eyeglasses. Toilet paper, yes. Modern dentistry. Indoor plumbing. Gas heat. Central AC. Clean water.
The internet which has allowed me to meet wonderful people I wouldn't even know existed without it.
Friends who are a source of comfort, compassion, inspiration, and love.

With all due respect,

You must be human . . . how weirdly exotic and excitingly perverse...
I am the Cat who walks by Himself, and all places are alike to me...
There were people who lied for gain, people who lied from pain,
people who lied simply because the concept of telling the truth was utterly alien to them,
and then there were people who lied because they were waiting for it to be time to tell the truth...

Gratitude for just being alive. Even when thigs are hard Im glad Ive still got the opportunity yo have just... to control my own life. Maybe it doesnt matter at the end of the day. Maybe Ill just end up being some sort of loser, unhappy and just- worthless. But maybe not. As long as Im living I get a say as long as I keep trying
