A few of my favorite things

In light of Thanksgiving I thought I'd write down a few of my favorite things in life that I am grateful for, and we could start a gratitude list. What are your favorite things?

  1. children's laughter
  2. giant trees with sunlit leaves
  3. tea and biscuits and a delicious book
  4. cats that stumble and then check if anyone is looking
  5. dogs running at full speed along the beach
  6. color! everywhere and anywhere it amazes me
  7. warm blankets on cold rainy mornings
  8. fresh drinking water right out of the stream
  9. piano playing at night in the apartment above me
  10. pumkin pie covered in fresh whipped cream...for breakfast ;)
  11. the quiet in my mind when I start a new painting
  12. warm glowing windows on snowy evenings

Gratitude

In light of Thanksgiving and the full weekend ahead, I just wanted to send out a quick post on Thankfullness. Because no matter what you have, someone else will always have more, and no matter what you lack, someone else out there always has less, I would just like to stay in the moment this weekend and say thank you for the people with which we get to share it all with. Without others, there is nothing to share at all.
