    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Days off, without having to take annual leave. :heart:

    Yeah 12 hour days are difficult, and physically and mentally exhausting., but I only do 3 of them, 

    I love my days off, I have such a better work/life balance now :smile:

    Today I am grateful for the sunshine and fresh air.

    The weather! It's been so nice and sunny these past few days :) 
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Big fan of the weather recently. It's put in me in way better spirits. :) There's something so freeing and relaxing about being able to wear more Summery clothes and enjoying a nice breeze.

    I am greatful for my family even those that I don't see. And friends. And you guys who got me through a hard time last night when I made the bad desperate decision to try speed to loose weight. You didn't judge and that made me feel less of a scumbag and kept me calm

    They weather seems to perfect today not to cold that I have to wrap up but not to hot that I can’t wear a thin jumper

    Having organs that aren't (I don't think lol) giving up on me
    Having a house
    The internet, my laptop, and my phone
    Electric, a kettle, an oven, etc
    This place and everyone on here. And their kindness to me
    Having alive and pretty understanding parents
    My pets
    My fav bands and my role models
    Music in general
    My lil cat-sitting job
    My mom's dog
    That my throat isn't in much pain at this second...
    That world war three hasn't broken out... yet...
    Animals, wildlife, nature

    And so on... I was just thinking that we sometimes take stuff for granted, so...

    I love ice lollies @Millie2787! Can you post one to the office?!

    I'm grateful for the sunny weather today, the park was so nice!
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    Today I am grateful for physiotherapy,

    After about 3 or 4 years of neck pain and problems today I had a physio session, just one more session to go, and my physiotherapist said how much I've come on, since I've had guidance and also by me doing the exercises I'm getting stronger. :heart:

    The anonymous group of year 11's who gave me a hug and distracted me when I was close to tears and close to contacting Crisis Messenger. And also the teacher who actually took some time out of her lunch break to help me calm down.
