    My gymnastics coach. She never fails to make me laugh and she is very encouraging.

    Those who support me when others don't. Those who stand up to hurtful people when they knock me down

    My new discovery (and recent obsession) of coconut milk hot chocolate. Tastes like a Bounty, but in a really good way.

    The sound of the rain outside while I'm wrapped up nice and warm inside. :blush: Even the littlest things can help immensely!

    It's deep so it's under spoiler just in case.
    I'd definitely be dead if it weren't for all the small things. You may not realise it, but if you're reading this and you've spoken to me before, you've likely given me a little tiny bit of light on my darkest days. Then there's the people I've never met, like the bands I love or the inventor of a relatable meme or the person who was strong. Don't forget my beautiful pets. You've truly made a difference, you've been that hint of light in this cold hole that's put even the slightest bit of doubt in my mind about dying. So thank you all <3

    My mum because yesterday when I was asleep on the plane (between about 12:45am and 2:45am) she ordered me a ham and cheese toastie for when I woke up because she knew how hungry I would be. I never actually knew until yesterday afternoon that I did actually get some sleep on the plane.

    @Millie2787 Aww this is so exciting!! Love the name Harrison too. Congratulations! I hope mum, baby and family are doing well <3
    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 ❤

    I’m grateful for children in need , without them our Young carers participation group wouldn’t be funded and i wouldn’t of had the chance to have my voice in the local community with it . I’ve grown in so much confidence over the last 4 years I’ve been with the group. 4 years ago I never even dreamed of doing anything at the conference I sat on the table and didn’t even speak to anyone and fast forward to 3 years later and I chaired and spoke at the conference  and without children in need that wouldn’t of happened for me .

    My mom, dad and gran <3 When everyone else in the world seems to be against me, my mom or dad are always there for me to talk to. They're the most supportive and relaxed people when it comes to who I am and what I want to do. They buy me the foods I'm craving even though I probably shouldn't have them. Both of us have inside jokes that no one but ourselves get, my dad and I play guitar together while me and my mom watch silly tv and laugh at it.

    My gran's incredibly generous and I don't remember her ever getting angry at me, even when I was the most difficult. Literally, this morning I was thinking a lot about how I feel like I wasn't invited into the world and no one likes me, when my gran interrupted it with asking if I want to make pancakes and watch Countdown (she didn't even know what was going on).

    I'm really lucky to have such people in my life.

    Holy crap. :( Look after yourself @Skive.

    It's been a year of grieving for me too. Death can really put other things into perspective and make you re-evaluate what's important. I know you're an elder round these parts, but we're here for you if you need.

    I'm grateful for amazing colleagues. <3

    My mentor. She is the only person who motivates me to carry on with school when things are hard.

    My teachers today have been really understanding about the fact I can’t help drifting off in lessons at the moment and just give me a little nudge when I do
