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

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? ☀️💛🙏

@PeppyPatti I love your long term steady dedication to study combined with your quirky thinking. Go Girrrl!

@Chasingsunsets @TAB @Flutterbug9

@Bunniekins

not sure if your pol sci course had a different structure to mine. I really appreciated the broad scope and theoretical basis of our courses, but they rejigged the uni, sacked heaps of academics, closed heaps of departments and reduced the arts faculty to a smidgin of courses, all under the umbrella of Culture and Communication. It could be good, but I am not so sure. I have a decades long relationship with my first uni. Daughter on a fancy board there atm, but not so convinced about the marketing of unis anymore.

My highlight today is that maybe my car will get fixed in time not to put upcoming plans out of whack. I had put off fixing something, but its getting to the point of possibly being a danger, if parts fall off while I am whizzing along on the freeway. Hope its not too expensive. Practical stuff matters...

and all reading along...

My brother just got sacked from his job in a University.
I’ll never ever get the amount of money pay he has so whatever.

@Appleblossom @Chasingsunsets @TAB @Rosepetal96 @tyme

he’s acting like he’s not got thousands of dollars in the bank.

@Chasingsunsets thank you! It's black tea, but there's something somewhat comforting about it, takes me back to times when I didn't have the cares or anxiety that I have now 😅 returning to work I'm starting to think is seriously derailing me. I want to be confident in what I am doing again, but it is hard 😩🙈

Any tips openly welcomed

Good luck with your car @Appleblossom !! Reassuring to get stuff fixed before it’s lost down the highway lol. Fingers crossed it’s done today 😊

love the song @TAB 😊


Aw @Rosepetal96 I love what the cuppas are bringing up for you re taking you back to a sense of calm, do you think the feelings you are having re returning to work has only been since your injury? 🙏

We made it to Friday 🤩🥳, my Monday and someone else’s Sunday 😁 Nonetheless, I hope there’s something good in your day, whether it’s the sun shining and catching some rays, snuggles with your pet, a sleep-in, some time in nature, or something else 🤔

Some recent inspiration from everyone here has had me thinking about the beach!

A few of you have shared what you love about the beach, and I’d love to keep the discussion going.

Maybe you have a favourite memory from the past, something you’d love to do or see, or your idea of the perfect beach day 😊🏖️☀️pics welcome!

For me, it has to be snorkelling or diving! I’d absolutely love to see some turtles out there again. A manta ray would be amazing too- I haven’t seen one while snorkelling or diving yet! Dolphins would also be so cool… I just love how peaceful snorkelling can be 🤿

🐠💙

Thanks @Chasingsunsets

I have watery memories with my 2 brothers... they never lived together, but this is a funny way I can bring us together.

One was a little competitive about swimming etc, but showed me his love of dog paddling under water, whilst looking at the way the sun's rays were refracted... he pointed out a glimmer....

The other, came to many beach holidays with me after adulthood, and we did snorkelling etc etc ... (he was totally raised by foster parents from 6 months).

They both died young, but different causes and life styles. Should write a book...lol

Hey @Appleblossom, I love how water memories have brought you together with your two brothers 🥰, I am sure there was a lot of fun had. Sorry to hear they have both passed away now, it’s lovely you have those special memories that will stay with you 💜.

It’s cool that you snorkelled with one of your brothers, what were the cool things you saw while snorkeling
