Part 2, 1 year "Name 5 good things"
 

Honestly, I'm having a super tough time with this could-be-easy list. Is it that this past year really was lacking good, or that my current perspective is off-kilter?

Prayer, meditation & this topic came up. I'm simply going to sit with this a bit and see what transpires within me.

5 crappy things this past year: I'm also having issues with a list like this!! In the sense of "awareness is good" all the not-good has had gifts. Twisted. I prefer really wholly authentically "good".

Anyone else?

1. Daily walk due to Lockdown
2. Improved my diet a lot.
3. Spending far less money
4. Organised regular phone calls with friends as not allowed to meet up. Ended up speaking far more than we would have done if were still meeting up
5. Recovered from Covid (apart from some long term issues) and have now had my two vaccines.



Thanks for this thread.

I'll play along!

1. Work from home now which is so much better than the office crap.
2. My house is cleaner and more organized.
3. Saving money because working from home is cheaper and we didn't go out to eat, take vacations, or did much shopping.
4. Doing more workouts and walks around the neighborhood.
5. Got my bike a tune-up so I can ride with my cool hot pink helmet.

I almost missed this post as I've been so busy and not on the page much.

I'll play, or try too.. this last year has been horrible, that list would be much easier and longer...

Five Good Things That Happened in the Past Year:

1. After several years of being pet free we adopted a rescue cat. I LOVE her! She brings so much joy.

2. I started creating art again, in a new (to me) style and I am "addicted". It is like therapy for me these days.

3. My husband got the 5year "stamp of approval" for being free from cancer

4. Unexpectedly, despite (in spite of ?) the pandemic, our family business had a record breaking year

5. My family has stayed healthy and safe (this brings me great relief because I am unable to get across the border to them at this time which has been causing some anxiety)

I have much to be grateful for. I should focus on that more than I do.

Thank you for this exercise. :)

This is my first post and naming 5 good things seems very fitting.

Here is my list:

1. My sobriety for 14 months
2. My mother surviving Covid
3. My son returning home for several months to work remotely
4. My grandson’s birth
5. My fully vaccinated card allowing in person visits with my family

1.My children
2. Our health
3. Our careers
4. The roof over our head, clothes and food.
5. Hearthealth

hearthealth.....so good to hear from you! How are things going for you? have been thinking a lot about you.
