I did this for 2014 because I felt like I had a bad year in 2013 since 3 of my friends died in separate situations and they were all under 9. But I also knew good things happened that year and it made me sad that I couldn't remember them. Now my "good things" jar is so full I can barely put anymore in.
Fast forward to next year's New Year's eve: "Oh boy, I'm so excited to remind myself of all the cool stuff I've done this year!" *finds empty jar* *insert prof Farnsworth's "I made myself sad" gif*
I did this in 2013 because I thought 2012 was horrible. I tried to write down one good thing (or more) every day, even if it was something stupid like "The sun made me warm after a cold classroom." I had to get a new jar by May because it was too full. I've learned a whole new appreciation for the little things. I highly recommend this, even if you only do it for a month. (:
