I'm sorry I didn't rise to your challenge yesterday, SH. I started adding to this thread and then just couldn't come up with much gratitude. It was a difficult day. Here I am, though, ready to put out some positive energy again.
So today:
-I am grateful for my therapist. He provides a much-appreciated counterbalance to the less sensitive men in my life (those that Painter has threatened to slap!). Today he told me something very simple, yet something I needed to hear: "Pheobe, you are a good person."
-I am grateful that I can walk in my fields at twilight and in the dark and feel completely comfortable and safe and peaceful. I find great solace in my land.
-I am grateful for tea. "Tea's a good drink. It'll keep you going." -Annie Proulx
