Thankful Thursday: A larger view

While we cry ourselves to sleep,
gratitude waits patiently to console
and reassure us; there is a landscape
larger than the one we can see.

It is wonderful to read this today. It's so important to feel what we feel, but to know that we won't always feel that way (for better or for worse). We humans hold on to feelings so intensely, and they always change and develop. Why is that so scary for us, I wonder...

Today I am grateful for your comment on my poem! Thank you for stopping by my site. Nice to be reminded of yours.

What a lovely thought for the day.

Today I am thankful for my wonderful friends, and for kick-ass accountants (it's worth it to pay someone else to deal with my taxes). And for my company paying people with credit unions on Thursday rather than Friday. And for poetry open mics.

As always, Drew, you speak to our hearts and our circumstances, We take your words and apply them as balm.
