If you…
Made it to a doctor appointment
Finished a shift you weren’t sure you could
Said no when it was good for you to, even though it was hard
Ate the “right” food, even though the “wrong” food was right there and looked soooo good
Remembered to put your clothes in the dryer
Got some exercise
Renewed your meds before you ran out
Took a nap before you needed one
Stood up for yourself
Spent time learning how to change your life for the better
Handled something you’ve been putting off for a long time
Let yourself enjoy the moment
Gave encouragement to someone who needed it
Made it all the way through this post lol
There’s ALWAYS something to celebrate, even if it’s small, even if it doesn’t matter to anyone but you.
Happy matters. Happy can get you through the suck and make the struggle just a little less. Seek it out. Savor it. Let it be a buoy.
