halfpint Jan 2014 12:36pm, 5 Jan 2014 17,095 posts	0 halfpint I would like to try and post a reason to be grateful every day in 2014! I was going to do it on the 'what's making you smile' thread but I don't want to hijack it. Feel free to join me
LindsD Jan 2014 12:38pm, 5 Jan 2014 297 posts	0 LindsD Good idea. I am grateful that although my hip is painful I am still able to run. (and for all the usual things like healthy family etc. of course)
halfpint Jan 2014 12:40pm, 5 Jan 2014 17,096 posts	0 halfpint Given it's the 5th day of the year I should probably do 4 to catch up: I've had 4 weeks off Uni and placement to recharge my batteries. I got to see lots of friends and family over the festive period. My friends/family have supported me hugely for the last couple of years and continue to do so. When I finish my course I will be able to repay their kindnesses

Welsh Womble Jan 2014 2:50pm, 5 Jan 2014 1,879 posts	0 Welsh Womble Great idea Halfpint :-). After a horrid 2013 which saw some dark days I have decided to look forward and celebrate all the good things rather than wasting time and energy on the negatives and things out of my control. So my reason for being grateful today is having the opportunity to spend two wonderful weeks in Kerala where the Keralans reminded me of what is important
