Find one good thing in each day.

I’m thankful for the willpower to eat healthily while my family have a Chinese takeout

My good thing today is as simple as this. Finally copping these Air Max 270 Reacts

I wore the pengest dark green suit to work today and felt amazing

Worked my day off and (hopefully) prevented macula involvement of a pretty nasty retinal detachment

As much as I hate this, today I’m kind of grateful I passed up the opportunity to go the United game. Shambles really.

Actually today was quite a beautiful day before 8.15pm. Took some time out for myself, little walk in the sun with some nostalgic songs, bought a cute lipstick, upgraded my phone. Felt at peace for a couple of hours, for the first time in a while.

This morning felt like the morning of April 25th 2018. Staying focused is the goal.

Today I am grateful for a friend as incredible as @courtneebrown_, you are my love and my life

Today I’m thankful for a family that I know I can talk to about anything, because their only worry is knowing I struggled through a hard situation on my own.

I’m thankful to be in a position where I can still tell those close to my heart that I love them. Through words, actions, memories. Directly and indirectly. You know who you are and you’ll always have a special place in my heart.

My good thing today (and everyday) is the Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser. A skin saviour

It’s only right that I dedicate todays ‘good thing’ to the best brother I could ask for, given he turned 25 today. This guy just shines at everything, including being one of my closest friends.

Had my signature payday Wagamama’s with alllll the sides

Being told you’re good vibes >>>

Such a good evening mannnnn

Having the kind of friends that make every motive a sick motive, where you can get on with anyone effortlessly. The type that are just good vibes every time ( @kaveeta_xo) xxx

I had the sweetest movie night in with my nephews. I made my baby niece laugh for the first time

It’s been a good one. Manchester with the girls, (winning at) bowling with the siblings, SuperBowl night and MAHOMEBOY coming through!!!

Back on my list game, feeling organised as hellllll. You know that suitcase full of Asian clothes that you have to sit on to close? I even sorted through that today. Massive job done.

I spent a lot of quality time with my gran today she had so many funny anecdotes about my dad and his siblings in their childhood, the kind of laughter that gave me stitches

Grateful for a dad that cares so much about my mental health

Gassed that my cooking skills are getting better every week

A (very drunk) old man had fallen over in a supermarket today and the cashier was struggling to help him up, while some people complained at the wait to be served so I stepped in to help, called him a taxi etc and as a result got my entire shop free of charge

Grateful that all my problems are worldly and above all, I have my health

Easiest £350 I’ve ever made

I had a feeling today would be bad but a thoughtful message set me off in the right direction. I met the cutest little pup, skipped the gym because my AirPods died and fit into a pengggg dress that I ordered in a small size on purpose (for gym motivation )

Today I’m thankful for sushi and restaurants with ‘all you can eat’ options

Today has been tough and I almost didn’t do todays ‘good thing’, but actually I’m excited to put a smile on a friends face tomorrow

I’m grateful for friends that make you laugh so much that your face hurts at the end of the night. Had the best little galentines with my wifey

This week has been emotionally and physically exhausting and I’m thankful that it’s over. Excited at the prospect of a plan-free weekend

Today I’m thankful for comforting words from a very missed presence. For fear of going back and forth, I can’t explain how much it means to me, but I hope they know.

Lucky to have home comforts and a roof over my head while it’s horrible and stormy out. Praying for those who aren’t as fortunate.

Watching games with my nephew and watching him grow to love football is amazing. I can’t wait until he’s old enough for me to take him to OT.

That Dave performance at the Brits, taking the kids out to the library and for hot chocolates, big bants with my dad. It’s been an alright day you know.

Grateful for midweek days off

Grateful for siblings that are always on board with ordering food

Video call catch ups with a friend in LA >>>
Can’t wait for Nads to come home

A littttle late for Saturdays thing and there’s not much good given I’m in Bham BUT I’m excited to have a catch up weekend with my Em

Didn’t do yesterday’s so let’s make it a combo. Grateful for the opportunities I’m presented with and the privileges that I have in my work and my personal life. Grateful for the gift of the gab and my ability to find something in common with everyone I encounter.

Grateful for books that you don’t want to put down until you’ve finished reading cover to cover.

Making a conscious decision to be better

Grateful for a United win only made sweeter by an Arsenal loss

Grateful for people who don’t take life too seriously

I mean, I can only dedicate todays good thing to Liverpool’s broken unbeaten streak, right?

Also, I’m grateful for people that listen, like really listen, to what you say. The ones that show they care with more than words, like reading the things you loved reading, adopting new ways of communicating for your sake, by giving you what you need before you know you need it.

Thankful for having family in every corner of the world but still feeling close to them when you see them, as if they lived next door

Today my beautiful mum turned 50 so today I’m thankful for so many things. For the love she gives me unconditionally, for the way she keeps me grounded, for her endless forgiveness and kindness, for her trust in bigger powers, for the way she prioritises my happiness always.

Grateful for being the type of person that loves to clean when they’re stressed

There was so much good in today. My hairdresser came through, I bought the pengest dress, I got dressed up and spent my birthday eve with my girls and honestly had the best night. Couldn’t be more grateful for all the good in my life right now.

In truth, I was dreading today but this last 36 hours has shown me how blessed I really am. I can’t even articulate the gratitude and love I have for the people in my life, I’m constrained by the limitations of the English language. I’m completely overcome with happiness rn. 24

I am thankful for the multiple ways love presents itself in my life; in my family, my beautiful friends, relationships past/present. In the way I see myself thanks to the summation of emotion from every person that has ever cared about me and shown it.

I can’t even comprehend how busy this month is going to be but I’m so excited. Grateful for plans to look forward to.

I had a bit of a revelation today and I’m excited to try and push boundaries in multiple aspects of my life, just need to keep my nerve

Manchester Derby. Scott McTominay 90+6’.

Today I’m thankful for hot water bottles, scented candles and early nights.

I had such a productive day and a lovely evening. I’m grateful for lots today; for great friends, for that feeling of ticking off long to-do lists, for the comfort that I find in the smile that my younger brother gives me when he can tell I’m down.

Another double. Seeing Liverpool exit the UCL yesterday was glorious. And a quiet day at work today was welcomed.

I keep falling behind on my good things, I need to make more of an effort to appreciate what I have. So amidst this pandemic, I’m grateful that I have job stability, good health, the ability to afford resources, the ability to help those who can’t.

Thankful for my bed and (what is supposed to be) an early nights sleep after a hectic weekend

The last couple of days have taught me that time away from a situation can be the most vital thing before you react. A good opportunity to reflect and make sure you don’t speak in anger/hurt. Even better when it’s mutual.

Grateful for an endless supply of literature as a result of my brothers many years of work. Our house is basically a bookshop at this point. (Sidenote: also grateful for his impeccable taste and reading recommendations, they always resonate with me )

Thankful for financial security. Praying for those who might be hit by the economic decline.

I’m excited to spend a good amount of time rediscovering hobbies, replenishing current ones, establishing good habits etc. I don’t think this month of isolation could’ve fallen at a better time really.

Keeping it simple. I had a lovely, active day. No stress, just a positive outlook.

I have a feeling being stuck indoors means I’m going to run out of these quick time, but today had its moments. A banging breakfast cooked by yours truly, a book exchange/Netflix party idea, topped off nicely with a group FaceTime chat with my 2 faves

23.54

Thankful for a household full of artistic people and so many different forms of expression at my disposal

It’s been a week of isolation so far and I haven’t gone completely insane. Also thankful for big fuck off bowls of Mac and Cheese for dinner

It’s been a whole week since I bought anything. Isolation is doing wonderful things for my bank account

Infinitely grateful for a younger brother that brightens every day and keeps me sane

Grateful for the time I have to try out new recipes, and for a family that’s always willing to eat what I make even when I won’t

it’s well and truly been one of those days today but it came with a goal in the 90th minute. grateful for all the little things that make me smile

My dad was telling me today that his next research project is based on my area of expertise so we had a chat about how I can help him with it. Thankful that he trusts my knowledge and values my opinions. Isolation and WFH is bringing us a lot closer, this time is precious to me.

Lack of straightening/styling my hair is bringing back my natural curls

So many wonderful things today. Homemade fried chicken, baking with my brother, a long walk to calm my soul, video chats with loved ones. My favourite part about the day came at 1am before I even slept. It’s been good.

I did a deep dive into Pakistani culture and discovered an abundance of artists, photographers, poets, designers etc which I adore. Made me see the motherland in a completely different light

Doubling up. Grateful for country road drives at sunset and the clear night skies. Special shoutouts to how the moon looked at 7pm and to the star outside my bedroom window that shines the brightest, I see you.

Early afternoon today felt like a flashback to 2007. I love the nostalgia associated with music from certain periods of your life.

Grateful for Money Heist and in particular, The Professor, who has reinforced my attraction to very intelligent men

The deer were out in full swing when I drove by Harewood house with my younger brother earlier. It was so beautiful and peaceful, I was in awe.

Late night co-ordinated HouseParty film watching sessions, the guilty pleasure of laying in and Easter baking >>>

You know when it’s sunny out with a light breeze and the blossom is falling softly from the trees and dancing around you while you walk? Yeah, that.

Grateful for really cheesy coming of age films, roast dinners and being awake to watch the sun rise

I live in an area where you can walk in any direction and find something beautiful
Today’s walk:

14.4 - I’ve been on a calorie deficit for 3 weeks now and actually seeing results is the biggest motivation

15.4 - The clouds in the sky at sunset today looked like brush strokes on a painting

16.4 - Family barbecue had me feeling like summer time really is in bloom

I wish I could go into detail about my good thing today but I won’t. I’ll say I’ve cried tears of joy and I feel more love in my heart than I have for a long time. Grateful for you.

Grateful to be surrounded by beautiful, talented, inspiring and jokessss friends who all get on. Merging my friendship groups and I know the linkup is going to be MAD

Spending stupid hours of the night binge watching classic Bollywood films

Ordered the fattest kebab after eating so well for a month or so. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely contributed to the fact that I feel especially good tonight.

Everything between 1pm and 2am

Honestly, spending a few days doing everything my mum does on an every day basis has made me realise how incredible she is. I miss hugging her rn.

I’m so grateful to have friends which challenge my way of thinking and pull me up on situations where I’m hurting myself. The conversations I’ve had tonight were long needed and, alongside other things, have made it very evident what I need to do to move forward.

Even though I miss working, I’m actually thankful to be in lockdown and furloughed during Ramadan so I can wilfully fuck up my sleeping pattern by staying up until sehri and sleeping in late

I’ve taken on a lot of responsibilities this last month but I was shown today that my efforts to maintain some normality and keep morale up in the house haven’t gone unnoticed. My parents are so lovely

As horrible as today was on my anxiety, my makeupless skin was glowing today (AL, mA, )

Nice things I see on my daily walks

My mum officially came out of quarantine today and I got to give her the biggest hug

Today I found way more than one good thing and I would be doing myself an injustice if I chose one over the other.

I had a genuine moment today with my dad today that I think I’ll cherish forever. The details aren’t important for Twitter but my heart feels so whole.

I had 3 weeks worth of holidays booked to go to Japan before I knew I’d be furloughed for that time period, which work removed for my balance and paid me in full for AL

I’ve been making a conscious effort to look after my hair more and it’s grown 2 inches (which is a lot for me) since lockdown started

My uncle delivers my favourite dates at the start of every Ramadan but he struggled to find them this year. Today I learned he’s been looking every day for them, just so he could deliver them to me especially today. He treats me like his own daughter

And last but certainly not least: I love having a platform where I can openly share my feelings with a loved one, and knowing they trust me to be able to do the same. I love little details being remembered and today more than ever, I’m excited for the future

My homemade Wagamama raisukaree today banged and tasted just as good as the original

Late entry but basically my face physically HURTS from the amount I’ve laughed these last few hours

Normally I’m the kind of person who gets bored of the food I’m eating halfway through but my ami’s nihari is the only exception. While I’m eating it, I’m praying I never get full because it BANGS

I cannot wait for the London motives as soon as this lockdown lifts!! Honestly the connections I’ve made in this time are one of few things getting me through this

I’ve been using a sample of Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate and honestly it’s a skin game changer. It’s incredible stuff (but so peak that I’m gonna have to pay £40 for a little bottle )

I’m emotionally and physically exhausted and there’s not much good right now but on my walk today, there was a hopscotch drawn with chalk on the ground and it brought me 30 wonderful seconds of nostalgia

I’m grateful for the multiple ways in which love can be expressed, and how lucky I’ve been to have experienced genuine love in so many forms. From surprise gifts from best friends to being inspired by the best people around me.

حوصله.

I have a bit of catching up to do...

On Friday I washed my car after 7 weeks of collecting dirt and it made me realise that shit is exhausting. I’ll start to tip at the car wash

I’ve been feeling a bit ‘bleh’ for the last week or so, so I treated myself and bought a MacBook

There’s something about the way the moon looks tonight that brought me so much peace. One beautiful star next to it, shining brighter than the rest.

I’m lucky to know so many charitable people. Whether it’s building wells, sponsoring orphans, helping out struggling mosques through difficult times, I’ve been blessed to be able to play a part in so many great causes simply because of the incredible people I have around me.

Considering I spent nearly the whole day in bed with a migraine, I really didn’t think it’d be a good one but things got better rapidly after about 8pm. It’s been a really lovely evening

Learning about Muslim Youth Helpline and taking part in fundraising for them has definitely been a highlight of the last 30 hours or so. Seeing the target hit 10k was emotional for me, esp with the cause being so close to home.

Thankful for last minute dinners that come out better than you could’ve imagined. Cravings: satisfied

I’ve been doing well not to order online in lockdown but these sweatshirts I’ve been anticipating for ages arrived today and they’re so nice

The night before last I slept 12 hours and ended up only properly fasting for about 3 hours.
Last night I slept 3 hours... but even though I need to get my sleep schedule in check, these last few fasts have been really good to me, AL.

I have to thank the TL for this one, for the duas and means to occupy the 27th night on a day where I’ve been feeling incredible unmotivated and uninspired

I hadn’t taken an Invisalign progress pic for ages until today and it’s safe to say it’s my biggest glo up yet. Got a little way to go yet but I’m kinda gassed!! Wear your retainers kids or it’ll be braces round 2 for you as well

Even though I couldn’t hug her or speak to her as much as I wanted to, running into @_kaosi in Tesco was the highlight of my day. Miss you honey!! I didn’t really feel the effects of social distancing until now

Yesterday was a really sweet day! Between being sent brownies, receiving my handmade Eid cards, doing my own mehndi, I think it was one of my favourite Ramadan days

Spent pretty much the entire day in the kitchen baking. Normally our entire extended family come to ours for Eid but this time around I’m dropping a dessert off to each household, personalised to their preferences

Despite the circumstances, I enjoyed Eid a lot. Seeing everyone’s faces when we surprised them with food, competitive zoom quizzes, speaking to the people I adore all day. I couldn’t have asked for a better day really

Grateful for how much Eid dinner SLAPSSSS the next day

My new MacBook arrived yesterday and it’s so

Grateful for lazy days spent drinking endless cups of tea with brownies, watching films back to back

Grateful for songs that link you to specific memories/people

I can’t say I was in favour of being in a family group chat until my brother showed his intention behind creating it. As @dumbham15 pointed out yesterday, the least we can do is make sure the ones directly around us are well informed. Thankful for family members like these

It’s hard to find good in times like this, if I’m honest. But one thing I’ve noticed is just how many people on my socials are rallying for change, raising awareness, donating to causes and calling out complicity. Thankful for those doing their part.

I tried a recipe for masala fish today and it BANGED. (My naan flopped but we’re ignoring that for now)

Thankful for having so many resources to keep me educated and informed on every injustice happening in the world rn. Also grateful for the ability to take some time out to look after my mental health amidst it all. It’s exhausting but necessary.

Thankful for 9 months ago exactly.

Thankful for learning healthy coping mechanisms for anxiety.

The sound of heavy rain while I’m cosy indoors >>>

Converted my failed naan dough from the other day into a pizza base and made the lengest pizza. I’ve had about 7 meals today and they’ve all banged

Today I realised that my mum is far more understanding and progressive than I ever thought, and that she does more to protect me than I’ll ever know

My day was made at 7.58am when I woke up after the most vivid, wholesome dream. Two of the best people in my life met and it warmed my little subconscious heart.

My Fitbit told me I’ve walked/run the length of the London Underground in the last 2 months, that’s 402km/249 miles

Grateful for The Good Immigrant for giving me different accounts from authors of colour growing up in the UK and the discrimination they were subjected to. There are so many cases of blatant racism that have been fully disregarded that I had NO idea about. Worth a read (so far).

I actually love warm days with bouts of rain, possibly my favourite type of weather

Thankful that my favourite podcast (created by two of the most amazing people) is getting the recognition it deserves. Follow @ Brownsplain on Instagram for some incredible South Asian representation!!

Rounded off a really lovely, relaxed day by putting some waterfall wall lights up in my room. Coupled with this weather, I’ve felt so peaceful this evening

Thankful for connections built with some patients, to the point where you’re excited to go into work to see them. My absolute fave is booked in for my first day back

Thankful for today’s BLM demonstration being peaceful and safe

Tbh today I’m grateful for sushi.

Grateful for those who use their position/platform to do good in the world without advertising it or making it even the slightest bit about themselves. (special S.O. to Rashford )

The PL is back!!!

Grateful that I’m seeing an increase in Muslim representation in TV/films without stereotypical character traits

A few today; I’m thankful that I managed to handle the TL today despite the topic of sexual assault being a huge TW for me. I’ve missed yelling in frustration as United play while my family tell me to keep the noise down and I’m also thankful for this link

Knocked out yesterday but basically this https://twitter.com/alshbah_m/status/1274345421146636288?s=21 https://twitter.com/alshbah_m/status/1274345421146636288

Dad is always so appreciative of everything we do, even for the smallest gifts. Endlessly grateful for him

My mum knows I don’t like eating kaleji (liver) but she craved it and made it anyway today and it’s actually nice when she does something she wants to do, like we insist, instead of constantly catering to everyone around her

Thankful for beautiful lunch break views, evening walks and the HP crew being back together

Nah today was just a beautiful day. Gorgeous weather, lovely views on my lunch break, a banging United win and a late night takeout. Couldn’t ask for much more really.

I wasn’t feeling motivated to do anything today but I brought some friends from different friendship groups together today and they got on so well. It made me so happy

Ngl I love thunderstorms in hot weather so being outside during the downpour made me feel like I was in a Bollywood film

Big statement but today was one of my favourite days of 2020, worth the 8 hour round trip. Road tripped (from Leeds to Birmingham to London) to surprise some new friends and it was everything I wanted it to be So incredibly content rn AL

This replies/QT’s to this tweet made me deep how lucky I’ve been in this life so far, all down to the efforts of my parents. I know they struggled a lot when we were younger but AL we had/have so much to be thankful for, even if it hasn’t always felt like it. https://twitter.com/cpoliticditto/status/1276998834686775296

Despite my day at work being hectic, I had a really good day! Kept busy, reported a racist, watched Ramy with friends on a video chat. It was cute!!

My Nads came back from LA today!! Musa and her drove all the way up from Heathrow to my house to say hi and it was so sweet

A Chelsea loss, United are closing in!!

Thankful for seeing motivation/willpower in people around me and being inspired

Tested a few NHS staff members today who are quite obviously worried about the implications of lifting lockdown somewhat tomorrow. Thankful for them and everything they do for us, hoping that everyone is sensible and safe going forward.

Thankful for immaculate lunch break music vibes and football being back on a big screen

2nd week running that I’ve forgotten to change my FPL but still 3rd in the Twitter league boyyyy

I watched Blinded by the Light with Mehek today and honestly, it’s already up there with one of my favourite films. To feel a connection with a film on this level, with the awakening of the protagonist, the representation, there was so much I loved!! One tweet just isn’t enough.

Courts and I came up with such a genius idea that I can’t wait to not share with anyone

Another double. Thankful for Cooplands Yum Yums, a brother that makes every meal he makes incredible, family time watching the Mandelorian and making plans in random cities with the cutest friends!!

Honestly today has been the cutest. Got a random Airbnb with friends and just hung out, played games, chatted shit until stupid hours of the morning

So basically I was violated by everyone this last 24 hours but it’s actually nice to be able to take it and dish it back out. My friends are dickheads yeah but they’re my dickheads

I can’t actually remember a day in my life that I haven’t not had dairy (despite being lactose intolerant) so I guess I’m grateful for changed habits these last couple of days and the first day in probably years without a tummy ache

My brother is the first person in my family to get a FIRST CLASS DEGREE (with a friggin 90 in his disso!!!!). I’m so proud of him, especially seeing all the genuine passion, hard work and late nights that went into each project. He deserves every success, he fckin earned it!!

Thankful for ramen being a meal I could probably live off for the rest of my life

Only I would arrange a video meeting at 9am on my day off but it meant I got up early and was super productive all day. Got to spend my evening eating pizza, watching football and Dev Patel films

I found actual motivation to return like 7 sets of orders today

Thankful for my dress sense being WAY better than what it used to be

My dad is the sweetest thing when it comes to encouraging me to cook, especially traditional dishes. Never just the one compliment, he sings my praises endlessly. An angel

Grateful for those summer drives where the sun is shining down, you’re banging old tunes and everything is just good in that moment

Today I realised I have never once regretted holding my tongue when I’ve been angry/frustrated. Thankful for continuously learning and practicing sabr.

Honestly rn I’m grateful that I’m only working part time because I don’t think I can handle being this unwell and working full time too

Not quite what I aimed for but just short of 3000 isn’t so bad https://twitter.com/alshbah_m/status/1286258934941200384

Thankful for all the time I spent with my younger brother today, just vibing on drives, sitting in the park and reading, getting ice cream. It was real cute!!

Frank Ocean.

Thankful for 3rd in the PL and a Champions League spot

Annoyingly I’m grateful that my family are forcing me to make rotis at conveyer belt speed while my mum is away. Practice makes perfect I guess

Always keeping a disposable camera in my glove compartment comes in handy when I’m spending time with my fave babe( @nadiapatel101)

Having such a varied taste in music means I can link different genres to different phases in my life and I love the nostalgia associated with it. Definitely stuck in 2011 today.

Almost kind of following on from yesterdays, I associated Sunflower with my emotions/the weather today and it was a beautiful, unforgettable combination

Happy to see my mum living her best life, eating mangoes in the sun in the motherland. Despite missing her so much today, my extended family made Eid as wholesome as it could possibly be. Hope everyone had a lovely day too

Grateful for those who are brave enough to challenge their family members on the irrational cultural ideals they uphold. Some conversations aren’t easy but I can only hope things get better.

You can’t underestimate the comfort of sitting in the company of your close friends, even in silence. It’s so therapeutic when your mind is restless.

Thankful for a change in dynamic at work that’s already making things so much more enjoyable

In truth, today has been really difficult for lots of reasons. The only thing that brought me some solace is my younger brother putting me on the top of his list of people he’ll take to heaven with him iA. (There may have been a bribe in there somewhere...)

Mehek sent me flowers to arrange today and honestly it was the loveliest thing to come home to

Spent a large portion of my day just hanging out with my younger brother, walks around the lake, reading in the park, long drives. It seems to be the way I’m spending a lot of my days off and I love it. My best friend.

I can’t even express how impressed I was by one of the nurses (of Belgian origin) in the Ophthalmology clinic at the hospital today. He spoke to my grandma in Urdu. On top of this he spoke English, French, Hindi, Punjabi, some Arabic and Filipino. Incredible, really.

First W on the SNKRS app followed by an evening of sushi and UCL. Beautiful little afternoon siesta too. Not bad.

Thankful for the strength that my mum shows constantly and endlessly. I don’t know how she does it but I pray that life is kind to her.

Thankful for early nights. Idk how I functioned at all today, way too old to be seeing 4am on a school night.

If you guys could give this a little read, thank you

Grateful to everyone that responded yesterday, for the replies, DMs and the prayers. I hope you’re all rewarded for your kindness

Thankful for friends that check in. Thankful for those that understand you’re not always in the headspace yourself to check in with them.

Surprise presents in the post >>>

Forever grateful for an older brother who is more like a best friend. My greatest support system, someone who consistently has my back, the best role model in so many ways. I can’t even get mad at him when he takes the piss out of United, because he’s actually quite funny...

Thankful for late night car journeys with nostalgic music and heavy rain

Thankful for faith in the hardest of times.

Thankful for Common Sense

The Umbrella Academy. S2 E7. 35:27.

I don’t even know where to start with yesterday. Grateful for Nads and the ray of sunshine she brings to my life. Thankful for friends that make an effort. Thankful for late night walks and talks. Thankful for places that hold good memories, thankful for the chance to make more.

There’s the occasional time where I can’t quite put into words what my good thing is, because words can’t convey the magnitude of how I feel. Today was monumental.

(And the pancakes at Evelyn’s actually changed my life, no exaggeration)

Grateful that I find so much comfort in prayer.

I tried on the jewellery I ordered from @softcharmshop today and it’s all so delicate and beautiful, I can’t wait to wear them out

Dad demanding me to make roti excessively in lockdown has finally paid off. Round AND thin!!! I could cry

10pm.

After 6 weeks of mum not being around, iA she comes home tomorrow. Thankful for the relief and comfort that brings.

This date marks the one year anniversary of the best year of my life. As up and down as things have been, I’ve experienced the best of life in the last 12 months, things I didn’t even know existed, let alone deserved. I will forever be thankful for it all.

Grateful for comfortable silences and things worth disturbing my sleeping pattern

Thankful for positive growth always

After eating out I think at least 7 times this week, I’m grateful for the most delicious home-cooked stir fry

I get the odd message here and there from people telling me this thread has helped them through some bad patches, so I’m grateful for this thread not only being for me to reflect, but for the impact it might have had on others too
