Simple Things

This is a project I'm under taking to save my boyfriend's life. And I won't give up until I see that he's living life like a normal person would.  Things I need to do to save my boyfriend's life: 1.

Mental & Emotional Wellbeing Ask how my boyfriend is feeling daily and let him know it will get better if he's not feeling well Write down 3 gratitudes per day (leave journal in easy to access place) 3.
