Because it is important that we all share. Here are my answers below :)
1. What are you grateful for?
My family including my dogs who somehow were not mine at first but became mine and despite myself not really being a dog person (I love cats) they are really so amazing and they make me happy! My health and happiness too and I am grateful for this community. As it is such a beautiful space!
2. How can I be kind to myself (with my actions, thoughts, expectations, relaxation, taking time off to rejuvenate, putting my interests first, etc)?
I can be kinder to myself by ensuring I get enough sleep. I think sometimes I keep myself a little too busy that I find it hard to relax so more time to switch off and relax is definitely needed! My thoughts are generally kind and my expectations but I do need to learn how to say no and to honour my boundaries.
Im grateful for my job. I have the opportunity to serve a great group of people.
I will be making sure to get plenty of rest!
I am grateful for my gp who works around the fact I have no insurance atm but still tries to offer the best care he can and keeping cost minimal.
I'm on bedrest by gp orders... so it's all rest. Everything else will have to wait and that's okay. My health before everyone's agenda for the next few days... no room for guilt or chiding. I need time to recover or its a hospital stay for me next... so me first. Inconvenient to some but life is messy - roll with it. Might cost me my job but I rather take action now to rest and recover and have to look for a job come 2019 than be miserable and risk severe consequences .
I think I may be ramblings . .. sorry.
@diplomaticconfucious
Your GP sounds amazing. :) I hope you rest and feel more comfortable soon.
@LisaDeRegtMBPsS I am grateful for the ability to have some time to appreciate life moment by moment. Life is full of changes and stopping and resting can provide time to let the dust settle and gain a new perspective.
I'm so thankful for quiet time in the morning and evening and I plan to start taking care of myself by setting some new and clear boundaries- practice makes perfect :)
@LisaDeRegtMBPsS
#1 grateful for having such an positive-funny-optimistic mindset
#2 to laugh even more, to enjoy life better and deeper
@onerandomguy
Lots and lots of things to be grateful for. Such a positive list. Laughter is so healing :)
A little late but better late than never 
1. What are you grateful for? Everything, mostly for life, my husband, 7 cups
2. How can I be kind to myself (with my actions, thoughts, expectations, relaxation, taking time off to rejuvenate, putting my interests first, etc)? Be gentle with myself when something goes wrong
Yay! I helped my writing buddy meet her writing goal and finish her book before the end of the year! So glad to be part of the process! She's helped me too but I actually feel happier about helping her! Thankful for writing buddies!
