Life is Good! Can we dwell on this for a while?

Postby angelinbluejeans » Sat Dec 28, 2013 12:31 am

How is everyone doing? Any one doing alright these days?

I am so surprised and sorry that there aren't hordes of people coming in here and sharing your joy!!!

Life is ok for me at the moment. Can't complain, but a lot more to wish for.

However, I'M SO HAPPY YOUR LIFE IS GOOD!!! Anything in particular? Wanna share? Or just a wave of a good mood?

ROFL!!! Omg! I love your sense of humor, EKO!!! But in answer to your question, we are all on this forum for various reasons, although likely by virtue of the challenges we have endured with regard to either our diagnoses of bpd or our love for someone with this particular disorder. But I am inclined to believe it is helpful to our goal of endurance every day to dwell on our blessings, to have gratitude for what we actually have rather than what has gone wrong in our separate lives. I, myself, am grateful (so grateful) for what I know.....and who I know; and what I have (personal blessings).

Yes, it's very important be be aware and thankful in regards to those blessings. I'm guilty of omitting some of them - not realizing how important they are, or sometimes they're blessings in disguise. :o

No hidden agenda here. I have no ulterior motives...

It was a little bit of a joke. I can get suspicious like that when people are nice for a prolonged period of time, but I'm trying to keep it under control.

I use to always thanks God I'm alive, how just being alive was the greatest thing, then depression came into play. But life is good, my children are good, I now have some money coming in and starting to smile more.
