For the past few days nothing seems to be happening right. I am unable to read, write, do things which are important and also those things which I want to do because the things which are mandated must dos are nagging my brain. I am also not happy with what I am posting. In short, life is bothersome.

This week Poets And Storytellers United wants us to write on something good. But I cannot think of anything good which is not good. Gratitude should make me feel good by making me remember and value all the good that has happened to me.

Has nothing good happened to me ?  No, that’s not right. I have had plenty of good in my life. But the problem is I have not held on to them. I am just caught up with the bad.

I guess, this is my learning today. That is why things are not happening so that I realise what I have to work on and mend.

Having said that let me post the link to my response to the prompt with a promise to myself that I will every moment from now on memorise all the good things that have happened to me.

With that

Au Revoir

Have a Happy Sunday 😌💖

  1. GC, beautifully written 🌸 Sometimes life presses pause just to remind us that the good isn’t gone, only hidden behind the noise.
    Holding on to even a small spark of it can brighten the path again.
    Wishing a calm Sunday filled with quiet smiles 💖

    Have a lovely, relaxing day my friend. Some days are just that- days with nothing special in them. But we are alive and enjoying our life.

    we really do need to remember the many “ good things that have happened” yet they can feel so distant at times.

    Aaaaaah, I feel your sadness but as everyone has so rightly said, im sure if you sit and look back thru the years, there are moments of joy, sadness and achievement whether they be singular or a joint effort.

    Sometimes its not what we have achieved so to speak but what we have in our lives . . . Our health, our family, good supportive friends . . .not just the ones that like a social gathering but then forget all about you . . . .how far we have come together, relationships can be broken in seconds but take a tremendous amount of time, effort and love to maintain, esp very long-term relationships.

    Sometimes we sit, do nothing but reminisce.

    Sadly its when misfortune falls upon others we truly appreciate and are grateful for what we have . . .stay happy, stay healthy.
