I find I have clothes full of pockets and in each an every one and each and every day there is something to be thankful for in each of them. edited 04:39, 8 Dec 2014

even the bits of kleenex, stevenaia? :-)

Well, I for one am very grateful for the existence of kleenex :-)

I am also very grateful for a husband who organizes nice family outings like we had last Saturday, and that it happened to be on a day when the weather was nice and none of us had colds.

Grateful to be self employed :-) it allows me a very flexible work schedule

I'm grateful that British/Broadway musicals can still be exhilarating, electrifying, and irresistible.
BILLY ELLIOT, for sure, is "a heart-stopping must-see" ! edited 18:12, 8 Dec 2014

"The purpose of practice is to habituate ourselves to openness." - Elizabeth Mattis-Namgyel

Reading this in "The unabridged journals of Sylvia Plath"(Edited by Karen V. Kukil, Anchor Books,2000, p.276):

"Those poplars. On clear nights, full of stars, leaning, pointing, big stars caught in the branches. Or angels. On those nights, stuck shining with angels. Remember Tinka Bell. Looked like a firefly glow till you got up close. Little lady then, shining dainty, with dragonfly wings."

I downloaded Eliza's link from yesterday ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OLz6uUuMp8&feature=share ) and have just finished watching the vid (roughly two hours long.)
There were SO MANY times during my viewing of this video that my [conscious] brain energy soared . . . and I wanted to "PAUSE" (as if "pausing" were possible, ha ha! {thinking now of "dropping"} - [pausing]... But moving on.....]}]}]}))) .... altogether and record that insight in another medium. Alas, I did not do so, but now I "understand" that there are multiple universes - YES! - in which I DID record them all!
WHAT a marvelous two-hour experience. THANK YOU, Eliza! edited 03:02, 9 Dec 2014

Isn't it wondrous
contemplating nothing
