Gratitude

[susanstinson]

Oh, I need it this morning:

• Pink buds pushing out on the neighbors' tree.


• The reliable warmth of oatmeal. Plus the extravaganza of a chopped apple, toasted walnuts warming the cinnamon, and really good yogurt.


• A crossword half done, with my love reading the clues aloud.


• A walking tour that I better hustle to get to. The trike ride on the way!


• A morning party tomorrow! The old girls network. The beautiful faces of friends and fellow travelers as we age.


• Getting inspired by the gorgeous accomplishments of others. Being lifted by that.


• Unextinguished passion for the things I love. Knowing what thrills me. Willingness to be surprised. Willingness.

Thank you for the lovely images and the reminder of gratitude. The necessity of gratitude. I'll contemplate my own list on my morning drive to meeting.

The necessity of gratitude. That sounds about right to me.
