What do you think people would be jealous of you for i.e. what are you grateful for?

LIGHTHEARTED

Ive seen this trend going around on social media, i find MN to be a bit negative at times so wanted to ask what people are grateful for or what makes you feel lucky. Can be anything from shallow to more serious.

Oh and I’m laid in bed next to the air con right now 🤣

I didn’t even know this existed!

Teenage DD is healthy, happy, has good friends and is doing well at school- that’s enormous and I’m so thankful for it.

Happily married for nearly 30 years.

I love my job and it’s decently paid.

I have a great relationship with my sister, very thankful for that when I see the sibling stress on here about elderly parents.

Large happy extended family.

The lifestyle I live…house with sea view by the beach and countryside abroad, v part time hours…but al mainly on paper and v unhappy in many areas

No mortgage and visible abs 😅

I was sat here thinking about how great my life is but I can’t compete with visible abs 😭

Lots of the above things, but also the most beautiful cat in the world! She follows me around and its the best feeling ever 😊

That I stepped up and moved a close relative in with me, after he was released after sectioning for psychosis. He’s doing well, but it’s been the hardest six months of my life, but I absolutely couldn’t and will never turn my back on a loved one in need.

That I have three amazing cats, I am proud to be a mad cat lady.

I have a high metabolism and can eat loads and stay healthy.

I have streaky blonde hair that is cut in the current on trend boyfriend bob, wtf that is.😂

My house is now a cool 19/20c inside and I’m wearing a cardigan over my summer dress and had to get socks on as my feet felt cold 🤣

I have always been an optimist that sees the positives in life, lives in the moment and finds humour in most situations. I’ve lost my temper twice in my life.

I was in the hairdressers last week and we were all talking about botox.. one lady asked me where l got mine done because my skin looks amazing and hardly any wrinkles. ( l am 68 and never had botox) she said she was really jealous.. ( l cant raise my eye brows so no frown lines) and I've only drunk water all my life.. so l guess my lovely skin.

Hmm, nothing as amazing as some of these, my life is totally average, hard in some ways but I’m still relatively content so I’ll give it a go.

2 lovely, healthy children.
stable marriage,
not rich but no money worries
nice enough house.
gorgeous dog
healthy body, healthy weight.

There are things that get me down but this thread is a nice reminder of things to be grateful for.

My marriage. We adore each other and are genuinely happy. We also have a cute house with a big garden, we’re healthy and a perfect child (imo lol). We don’t have any money but feel very lucky.

I have fantastic long legs and a pretty face. Nothing I have done to ‘earn’ these!

After seeing so many friends go through divorce or admit they aren’t happy in their relationships.

I think people would be jealous that I am in a happy relationship, he’s truly an amazing man, does his fair share of housework, good dad etc. I am so grateful for him.

Good looks, lovely parents and siblings, stellar education, rewarding career, fab husband, and amazing kids. We’re also very financially comfortable.

I have all the things.

I'm a size 6 through some walking and yoga.

I have really great men in my life, especially my father.

I have wonderful friends.

My cats are dicks though

I was born into straightforward, loving family and my parents and sibling are all nice and we all get along with literally no drama.

I'm married to a wonderful thoughtful caring man, my 1st love, been married for 39 years and we have 2 lovely healthy happy DS.

That i can afford to be a SAHM. That we can holiday 5/6 times a year. That my kids are healthy and excelling in their chosen hobbies

I'm healthy, have an interesting job, am in a happy marriage, and have a beautiful son.

13 weeks holiday a year

That I have a decent job earning perfectly normalish money but that my DH earns shedloads (about 5 times what I do)
Own a detached house in London with big garden and there is a bit of breeze through it in this weather
Didn't struggle with fertility and have two happy and healthy children who are doing really well at school

Pretty good going when I think about it!

Probably of my fast paced financially free life
