    Heard a knock on the front door, 

    Opened it to see a hot chocolate, chicken nuggets and Fries from McDonald's with a note from my friend basically saying sorry she's busy but here's lunch! 😂

    So sweet of her 💕

    The staff at the train station. One of them came up to me and asked if I was ok and then gave me some cold bottles of water when I said I'd already been sat here half hour and still got an hour to wait. 
    Honestly kindness goes a long wau

    Wow that is a long time but a lovely thing for the staff to do.

    The kindness of strangers. We found an abandoned kitten under our garden furniture last night and took it in. So many people in our local area have offered advice and assistance on FB. The little guy is headed off to a rescue centre this evening!

    “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

    And I like the fact that Big Bang Theory is on because it means I can watch something that I like.

    Woke up to a knock at the door (I say knock, more like a kicking of the door) only to see my friend who lives down the road, with my fav Starbucks coffee in her hand. She felt I deserved a treat because I've had such a rough well. 
    Can't wait to go round later for some down time!
  • Anch0r33Anch0r33 Posts: 1,201 Wise Owl
    I'm grateful for everyone on here... And my bed. It's really had my back recently. 

    (Jeez that really should've went in the joke thread @Aidan)

    Soppy but i'm so grateful for my pals. We've always got each others backs and it's so comforting to know that they're there for me, even if i don't want to talk about it.. knowing that i can if i want to and that they're there for me always is a big relief 

    I received some pretty bad news today and i wouldn't have coped half as well as i have done if it wasn't for my buds being there to cheer me up and to take my mind off of things.

    We're all so different yet we get on so well. I dunno where i'd be without them honestly.
