Grateful

[badseed1980]

You know, I've seen a lot of people posting gratitude-related stuff lately. I'm not sure why, but I like the idea. I remember a quote I read once--I think I saw it on some quote-of-the-day calendar--that said, "The really difficult moment for the atheist is when he's truly thankful, but has nobody to thank," or something like that. :)

That said, I'm grateful for the most beautiful late-summer weather I've ever known. I'm grateful that the air seems to be full of possibility in so many ways these days. I feel like there are good things out there like ripe plums sitting on a branch, and that all I have to do is reach out and pluck them before they fall.

Life is good these days. I'm grateful for that.

Oh, and this version of "John Barleycorn" was by Tim Van Eyken. Cool.

I'm grateful for having an open-mind.

That's always a good thing, so long as it's not so wide open that your brains fall out. That's what I always think when people tell me I'm closed-minded for not believing that they are part elf, part unicorn, and that they were Eowyn from The Lord of the Rings in a past life. :)
