Time To Start The Gratitude Project

I really need it today.

I am grateful that I have enough money to afford the coffee that spilled on me and stained my new shirt. I am grateful that I can afford to patronize a place that refuses to stock proper cup lids that would stay closed when one is walking back to their car.

I am grateful that it is extra paycheck month, which means that I can go all out for Lughnasad this year (and still afford to catch up on the bills). I am grateful for the break in the heatwave, and I pray that others will find the relief they seek.

I am grateful that I am living in a country where I can safely go outside without fear of death raining from the sky. I am grateful that I have the luxury to debate the issues of war with someone else who has the luxury to debate with me.

Tomorrow I will smile for Lugh's festival and I will toast to health and peace for all who seek it. I will pray that those who do not will remember that there is more to life than being right. I will remember the lessons of the Charge, and I will sing the songs of my ancestors.

Blessings of the season on all.

OnThe Bright Side ...

I don't think my day could get any worse unless someone broke into my house and punched me in the face. This is one of those 'drinking from the bottle' days.

That is all.
