Today, I am grateful for Martin Luther King, Jr., and people who make a nonviolent stand for freedom and social change everywhere.
Today, I am grateful for these words from Dr. King: "We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies."

Today I am grateful for the portable heater under my desk. I sit by a window and today it is a cold spot!
Grateful everyday when I walk through the door of my little studio and feeling that sense of home. Grateful that my landlord could look past Annie being a 80 pound dog and allow us to rent. Grateful that I can keep my windows open all night and only hear the birds in the morning. Grateful that my divorce is final even with the on going court battle to divide our funds - grateful there are funds that have to be divided! Most of all having Annie with me to keep me focus on the good things and not what I no longer have.
