What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

Hi everyone! This is my first ever forum post so do hope it lands where it’s meant to 🤣

Most days, I like to find a highlight 😊. Usually, that means during a walk with my dog, I try to spot something different, something cool or something that brings me some happiness. Whether it’s something big or small, it doesn’t matter. A highlight can be anything!

I love taking photos and would really like to share and see what you've come across. Something that made you smile, sparked your interest, or simply caught your eye. For me, it’s all the little things that count on the hard days.


To start, I’d like to share these beautiful birds I came across today. They like to appear like branches of a tree or the tree itself. They are called Tawny Frogmouth’s. Has anyone else seen these types of birds? My pics below -(hopefully not too small to see two in the tree on the left pic).

What have you seen today? ☀️💛🙏

🍾🎊Congratulations Mrs and Mr Shaz💝.. I am sorry to hear you still have your colds..

That's been going on for a while I think.

Hope you both recover quickly now so you can celebrate this milestone.

Are you having any celebrations or delaying until you're both feeling better

@Appleblossom im sorry you werent shown the same care you are able to provide others with.

if not for anonimisness and if distance allowed it i would offer to help.with the animals and any labour intensive chores so you could save your strength for cooking and cuddling.i dont know why that is i just know it to be true its not meant to be offensive i apologise if its taken that way.

im grateful for your posts and i do hope you believe i respect your strength to push through certain thoughts and live. im sure you give inspiration to a lot of people with same struggles.

my nana rode a triumph in the day i remember seeing a brown and white photo of her with the old helmet looked like its leather with the goggles

@Shaz51 @REDLINEZ750 @Appleblossom @ENKELI and anyone who has posted to me today. 💛

I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed atm with the amount of 'mail' I've gotten throughout the day! 😁 It's great! I know! It's going to take me a while to get through them all (like days), though. Normally, I like to think about and go over and over and over it again and again; then reply to each one! Tonight, my partner needs me! I don't want anyone to think that I'm ignoring what you've written to me. I may just be passing through over the next couple of days, while he's staying with me. 💛

@Blackcloud We were talking this morning before I had to run off, so I'll reply to you next. I will type in short stints so I can also spend time with my partner. He is also on the spectrum. 💛

@REDLINEZ750 We'll definitely catch up before I take my meds 💛

Hi @Appleblossom I agree with what @AlwaysMyself says..

This is a generality and just my opinion, but, I think people with MH issues are often a lot more open minded, having been through things, where they have been subject to some type of discrimination and because of their MH issues they understand that different is not bad or less, it's just different.

If we didn't have difference we wouldn't have many of the things we have, especially in the arts, but also in more scientific areas, thinking differently leads to discoveries that grinding through the usual processes doesn't.

People without MH issues I think, understandably have a different perspective and because many people don't talk openly about their MH difficulties, other people are often unaware, and they don't take the time to find out.

Remember it wasn't long ago when many people with MH difficulties weren't in society because they were institutionalised, so the rest of society could "ignore" it.

As you know the media often doesn't help with the way they portray people or jump to conclusions causing others to have some anxiety about MH issues.

On the other hand not everyone with or who has had a MH issue is as open minded, as I say everyone is an individual with their own outlooks and opinions and while you can make general statements, not everyone will fall into them.

I am glad you have made this friendship and it seems to be based on openess.

I have had mixed experiences with people with and without (that I know of) MH issues, but that could be down to me.

My highlight was that I made some good table tennis shots today and am improving, which is good for the others too because we can have longer rallies.
