Everything sucks now

Is a sentiment I have been seeing far too often. It seems every day there is some new horrible thing we need to panic over or some idiot we should be mad at. That is why I wanted to take some space to express my appreciation for things in my life. Starting with my family, they've always been able to support me in whatever way they knew how despite the fact I had so many things wrong with my mind growing up.

 I appreciate the way my mom was and is always there when I need someone to love me unconditionally. I appreciate all the times my brother's and I would spend playing video games together before we got our own lives and had less time for that. And now I appreciate all the work my wife puts in for us and I try to make them as happy as they make me. 

Besides my family I have many friends that make me feel loved and I couldn't be happier with the people I surround myself with. I am so happy to spend time at the skate park learning to just keep myself on my board, or dancing at the club, or going camping. I'm so lucky to have friends that make me feel comfortable and confident enough to do that with.

If you've read this far I would really like for you to take this space and show some appreciation for anything in your life and maybe talk to other's about things that make you happy. Much love and I really miss my functioning nostrils :(

my job lets me and others openly stim. we are in retail and deal with customers all day. this would have been unthinkable even just 15 years ago.

despite all the muck that our world is drowning in, there is so much music that i love and appreciate that i get to listen to every day!! i also loove movies... movies give life.. so much LIFE!! and i also love carrot cake and how every place makes their carrot cake differently. I want to have a lot of carrot cake in my life :)

Meh, remember, there's big money in selling us fear. 

You don't have to be.ieve the things fools say to you today.

I appreciate people a lot, I love that everyone has their own quirks and unique qualities that make them who they are. I love that even in a small interaction with a stranger that you can learn a bit about them, or learn from them, or both! I like that pretty much anyone can connect in certain situations, where they may not have crossed paths otherwise. I like that people are multifaceted, and as much as they can be cruel, unkind or hateful, they can also be deeply caring, thoughtful & sweet. I know this isn't a music thread, but this song comes to mind. God, I love some people sometimes!
