Happy Thanksgiving, all. <3

Today, I am grateful.

Grateful for life.

For forgiveness.

For humor.

And unconditional love.

I am grateful for my physical and mental health—even when either seems less than stellar.

I am grateful for laughter—especially the uncontrollable kind.

And tears—when relevant and therapeutic.

Toddler giggles.

Dachshund kisses.

Gentle touches.

An abundant feast and time spent with family.

I am grateful for my voice. For my community. For dialogue and learning. For all who read my words.

For simplicity.

For pelicans that dive into the bay.

For Christmas lights strung far too early.

For seasonal scents that fill the room with warmth.

For joy.

And wine.

I am grateful for today and for the possibility of tomorrow.
