Let's do a daily post with just ONE THING we are grateful for. With everything that is going on, sometimes it is hard to remember to focus on the good things too. It can be funny, silly, serious, whatever, no judgements here.
Cleaned teeth 😁

I went to my favorite restaurant for breakfast this morning. They just opened up today. It was good to see familiar faces, even if they were behind masks. A different experience, but all good.

Finreporter - I posted to the general daily board what I meant to post here your post yesterday about the reunion with your friend made me tear up - I like happiness tears! thank you so much! i feel a huge sense of relief that she's back in my life. we were saying to each other how in the 12 years we were apart we never found that friendship level with anyone else and that it was more like losing a sister than a friend. she really is the best friend i've ever had. and your "one thing" on tears - it is very true!! i was reading a really neat article on toxic positivity and it reminded me of the movie "inside out". the general concept being that it's ok to feel sad and to feel negative emotions because allowing those feelings can help you appreciate the positive all the more. so yes, tears are a good thing i'm grateful for as well! sometimes we need them to get through complicated and emotionally draining situations. "The phrase toxic positivity is the culture of portraying yourself as being happy no matter what. You’re basically switched off to anything which might be viewed as negative. It’s also the idea of encouraging people to always see the bright side, and not open up about anything bad." thetab.com/uk/2020/02/19/toxic-positivity-culture-meaning-140567#:~:text=The%20phrase%20toxic%20positivity%20is,open%20up%20about%20anything%20bad. |

finreporter, Thank you for the comments about toxic positivity. I have a relative who is like that and it can be maddening. I think being positive is a good thing but like you described it becomes a bad thing. One time I was with her and went outside to check the weather to see if I needed a jacket. It was chilly enough to wear one. I then had to listen to a five minute lecture about what was positive about the weather that day (sun shining, beautiful sky...) Heaven forbid you say you don't like a food she'll go on and on about how good it is. I love her dearly but the trait gets to me.
