Joy List

[Banana]

I'm in a whole lot of pain but desperately clinging on to joy at the moment...


Helping others in simple ways (like carrying shopping home/to the car) and seeing them smile.
Children laughing - always a joy for me.
Cuddles
The scent of certain spices e.g. cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger.

lovely joys here

flowers, the smell outside after rain, soft blanket and a good book, the warmth of sun, pasta, caring hugs, the look in someone's eyes that is experiencing recovery, hitting a PR in the gym, sharing giggles, the first snow, pushing through when you desperately wanted to quit

Eep!! Sorry I didn't see this sooner!
Yeas, those are great joys you list.
The last one is striking a chord in me now. Thanks

Transforming feelings of shame into feelings of gratitude. I enjoy this!

AHA moments!
