Day 85 of My 95-Day Gratitude Challenge

Gratitude

"Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged."

Helen Keller

This morning I am grateful for the smell and the taste of fresh ground Hazel Nut coffee in the morning. The sound of the coffee grinder grinding grinding my coffee beans is the like the sound of a nightingale serenading roses at the dawn.

This morning I am grateful that my Bank of America checking account is not overdrawn and that I have money in my savings account.

This morning I am grateful that I was able to post a video on Poet999's Thoughts about Writing and Other Stuff   from Be On For Publishers.

This evening I am thankful that my sister is out of the hospital.

This evening I am thankful that Faye and I went to Macayo's for my birthday. I am, also, thankful that Bill wanted her to take me there.
