thank you


Thankfulness, thankfulness that's what I need now.



Feeling like a spoiled kid, you know the kind, the one who screams for the other Happy Meal toy instead of the perfectly fine one they already have in their hot little mitt just because it's the wrong color. That's me, totally ungrateful for my life. I have the freedom to do, be, and become the person I want, I have liberty to practice whatever religion I wish, I have more stuff than any one person, or small village for that matter, needs. For me, I like to blame someone else or a circumstance on my inability to change. But yet to those the most have been given it's an inverse scale of inner satisfaction. I'm changing that. It's the human condition to want and yearn for more but that doesn't make it right. Today, just for today, I am grateful. I want to change my inner yearnings from stuff (my digital camera) to the real things in life that are worth wanting, you know the ones that rust, moths, and time can't erode.
My new list of wants:
A bombproof marriage
uplifting parenting
authentic self
connecting soul
