I woke up this morning filled with gratitude for all that is right with the world. This is a rare condition for me. More typically I wake up with a to-do list, a don't-wanna-do list, and a wish-I-had-done list.
But not today. Today I am basking in what my life has been and become, the family and friends that bless it, and the comfort and wealth (and we ain't talkin' money here) that surround me. Today I love my most comfortable bed in the world, my best hot shower a human being ever had, and my delicious anticipation of Thanksgiving dinner with so many of the people I love.
I know, this is so schmaltzy and I am generally so not. I don't know what has come over me and I promise to get well soon, but here I am, in this haze of joy grown out of gratitude, just plain (dare I say it) happy.
So, very quickly, before reality realizes I've stepped out, before the economy and the war and the sadness and worry remember me, I wish you a fabulously Happy Thanksgiving, and I wish you a day like my today.
