Feeling a long embrace with my partner who is not always open to me was a nice human connection.
@soulsings
Nice that you could enjoy this quality moment with your partner.

A walk in the woods on Saturday with the dog - all kinds of scents noticed by both him and me
A concert with my choir yesterday which went pretty well, in spite of the cold. The village where we sang was high up in and visibility was excellent. What a scenery!
A grandson who actually put his things away before his mother came to pick him up. He also got perfect grades on the national test for his 4th grade.
It's good to vent on the positive as well, isn't it?
@Fradiga
Thank you for sharing these positive happenings with us! 😀

That's the thing about positivity and good feelings. They don't stick for me any more than the bad feelings, thanks to my nonexistent memory. I don't remember recent good feelings, so I can't really describe any either. Which in turn fuels the overall negativity.
@OneErased
Sorry to hear that you have trouble remembering the goods things. Have you ever thought about of writing them into a journal and eventually also the story, maybe with pictures, behind them?
@amiablePeace77
I do that all the time. But even if you recognize your own handwriting, it's a stranger nonetheless. But it is what it is, really. One day at a time and all that.
My neighbor and friend who I've known since childhood turned 100 years old this weekend!
@hockeyhockeyhockey that is an incredible milestone. I bet you have some interesting conversations with them.
@amiablePeace77 I was able to go outside and be around people today, and the day overall wasn't bad. I'm grateful I didn't sink into depression, although my paranoia was there, albeit low. I was also able to reconnect with friends after I thought I ruined things with them, which felt nice.
@michaelR860
I'm happy to hear that things turned out well for you despite your challenges! You did well 👍
@amiablePeace77
The feeling of re-connection with nature on a walk recently.
@CaringSub
I can so relate CaringSub, nature is one of my best healers.
@amiablePeace77
I got an ideal grade on a hard math test. I felt a sense of success because my test grades for that class had been a disappointment in the past few months. As the new semester started, I was happy to see my improvements.
@LZYYYy wow that is wonderful - congratulations.
@LZYYYy
Congratulations! 👏
