hi everyone so today I had a good day went for a drive to see an older cousin,it was a more relaxed visit than the previous family gatherings and not so many people more one on one time and small group it did turn out to be casual just watching movies and talking and snack food including chocolate and popcorn it was really nice to see how far my cousins come in his own life this year as hes been through alot this year so its good to see him smile and laugh and be in a more calm happy way instead of how things where for him at the begging of this year so yes Im very thankfull for the family who stand by each other when we need each other,Im thankfull for the talking and listening and company of those around me who are aornd not because they have to be but because they choose to be and I choose to be ,appreciate the hopefully good things in store for the new year,its important to spend time with the people who get who you are as a person,I like giving time and gifts to those who appreciate it and becoming more aware of who those particular people are for me and my life and for them and there lives in return relationships ,friendships and even in family its all about communication and who you can trust its also about respect and always equal give and take ve become close with my older cousin in a good way guess Ill alaways need someone to be like an older brother to me x

Good hearing you have had good experiences today. So important that we 'mine' good times for all they are worth. For i know that a thankful heart does a lot of quelling of depressive feelings.
Hang on to the enjoyment of this time for as long as you can, and seek out other such events if possible, to add along with these times.
For i found that building good times, making sure our depressive bouts do not steal them from us, being thankful, and guarding, of our good times, will assure us less deep troublesome times when the shit hits the fan again.
Recording our good times, can be a great way assisting us, when bad life is dominating our lives again. For when we are depressed it always seems like it has been like that forever, and will always be like this, yet recorded good times can remind us this is not true.
Have a nice day.
