I'm aware there's a few threads like this but none that we can share what's made us smile :) I have so many things to share but never sure where to put them :lol: so I thought we could share them all here...

no matter how dark the day, there will always be light, basically no matter what you're going through there are positives as well, every cloud and all that <3

    whats *still* making me smile, is I received a lovely letter yesterday from an inpatient friend, reminding me how strong/brave I am, it's just what I needed to hear :) 'there's happiness out there somewhere and we'll go on a bloody treasure hunt to find it' something she said in the letter, and you better believe it's true! we WILL find that happiness! <3

    The guitarist out of one of my recent fav metal bands followed me on twitter  and sent me a message and now we're talking about God 😁💖

    “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

    When going to the shop for a birthday card isn't a necessity but you have a spare mother's day card 🤷‍♀️🤣💖 #LockDownBirthday

    Wish I could post photos of other people 🙄 basically have a stunning photo of my mam from today when she was opening her presents/cards from strangers who were kind enough to send something 💖 she looks SO happy and I haven't seen her smile like that in a long time ☺️ she's struggled with mental and physical health since before I was born and is basically housebound, she only goes out with someone with her... Basically today is about treating her and doing the best I can to make today special for her during lockdown 😊❤️❤️

    there was a book I really wanted but it was like £5 more than the dvd, so put the dvd on my wishlist, and someone went and bought me the book instead … nearly cried with gratefulness … really did make me smile :)

    Yesterday I was walking home from the shops and I passed through the public garden when I saw the sweetest little munchkin. The baby was around 15 months old, legs crossed and chilling on the grass. As soon as she saw me she smiled at me and waved, I did the same back and it made her so so happy. I had never seen this child and it was truely refreshing seeing someone so joyful.II blew her some kisses and continued on my way. 

    She made my whole day 💖

    Our newest dog Sadie. It's her birthday today and she decided to celebrate by repeatedly trying to play with me while I ate lunch. :joy:

    Today on another website one of the mods said that she missed me and was thinking about me as she hadn't seen me around for a few days. She knows that I struggle with my mental health. But she only knows a little bit.

    Something that has made me smile today has been logging onto the boards and seeing all the great community support for others and just a general sense of lovely-ness ( I think I've just made that spelling up ) haha!

    I love this community :heart:
    " And everywhere I am, there you'll be, your love made me make it through, oh I owe so much to you "
    " So I say thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing, thanks for all the joy they're bringing, who can live without it, I ask in all honestly what would life be? Without a song or a dance, what are we? So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me "

    Watched a cute video on YouTube of a tiny piglet falling in love with a massive dog.
