Being asked out on a date by Ray.
Watching him try to save an injured pigeon.
Sleeping all night long without chemical intervention and without nightmares.
Feeling as if I want to paint.
I think I might try this every week until I don't have to look for the good things.
What are your good things?
I love this focus on the positive. It might help you through the darker days. My five?
