I make it a point to thank God each day when I first open my eyes, before my feet hit the floor. I am grateful for each new day! But I also love my first morning cup of coffee as well as a massage or a pedicure!!! All are great blessings!

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful morning ritual @rowensheri ! Starting the day with gratitude really does set the tone. And yes—a good cup of coffee and a relaxing massage or pedicure are definitely blessings too! Was there a recent moment where one of those little joys felt especially meaningful?

I had open heart surgery a year ago. Then 2 weeks later I had an allergic reaction to a medication and couldnt lift my left foot off the floor, spending 3 weeks in rehab. I thank God for every day when I wake up. I have alot to be grateful for.

Thank you so much for sharing your story @Wheream1? — it really puts things into perspective. What you’ve been through sounds incredibly challenging, and it’s inspiring to hear how you’ve held onto gratitude through it all. Has there been something—big or small—that’s brought you unexpected joy in your recovery journey?

The end of the day, supper on the table, peace and quiet

Thank you for sharing @kiki —that sounds like such a comforting way to end the day. There’s a special kind of contentment in those quiet evening moments. Do you have a go-to supper that helps make the evening feel just right?

Facebook has continuous videos of panda bears. They bring a smile to my face.

Thanks for sharing @richardsimon — panda videos really are the ultimate mood-lifters! They’re so playful and clumsy, it’s hard not to smile. Do you have a favorite video or moment that still makes you laugh no matter how many times you watch it?

What makes me happy is starting a new book. Just opening that cover delights me!

Thank you for sharing @8grandma+4 — there’s something magical about that first page, isn’t there? It’s like stepping into a whole new world. Have you started any particularly memorable books lately, or do you have a favorite genre that always draws you in?
