Give kindness and something amazing happens. Your own strength, confidence and joy will increase. Add some kindness to your world today. And see the positive benefits as it continues to grow beyond you. ~Ralph Marston

Today I am grateful...

• for So's recounting of returning to Kentucky. Say hello to the weird spinning fetus.
• that I was able to introduce a fellow AAer to getting her art onto the Internet(s)
• that I know I have to be vigilant and watch for renegade thoughts. Not rebellious thoughts, but those that spin off and leave my serenity behind.
• that I have the chance today to make my life a little better and maybe, along the way, do that for someone else
• that I have been concentrating on gratitude so I don't play into the thoughts of the future being any less abundant than this day
• for a Higher Power that sustains my life and my future
• that trust, practiced daily, makes life self-propelling
