Here’s a list of things that I’m currently grateful for:

  • Tea!

  • Meeting up with old friends.

  • People who go out of their way to help me.

  • Family and friends; especially my brother.

  • People who understand you and want you to be there.

  • Friends with a sense of humour.

  • People who make me laugh.

  • Making other people laugh.

  • Chance meetings.

  • People who come through for you at the last minute.

  • Understanding friends.

  • Strange encounters with nice but equally strange people.

  • Being asked for help.

  • Being able to help.

  • Friends rallying behind you.

  • Friends who want to play.

  • People who do you favours, and ask nothing in return, because of all the favours you’ve done them before.

  • People who help above and beyond the call of duty.

  • People who make me cups of tea.

  • People who care.

  • People. Full stop.
