I like to listen to Dennis Prager on talk radio. One of his tenets is that happiness eminates from gratitude. Since I consider myself a happy person, maybe these are some of the reasons.
I'm thankful for:
- My wonderful family, my wife and my two kids, all of whom I love immeasurably, and, by extension, the family I grew up with; my mom, my brother and my sister. I love them a lot too.
-To have had the great good fortune to have been born in the best place in the world to live.
- My God-given ability to play music and being able to make a living at what I love.
- Being able to still (at 54) get up in the morning free of chronic pain.
On a different level:
-The Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade
-Seinfeld reruns
-poker on the back porch (if you're thinking it, don't say it)
-surprise e-mails from old friends
-Komodo Dragon coffee blend in the morning
-skilled airline pilots
-old songs that still sound great
-old friends that still like to hang out
-running around in shorts outside in February
Thank you all for just being a part of the pastiche. Later...
