Today, I am thankful for the American legal system. Contrary to justice as it can be, cumbersome as the structure often is, the people who work within it are usually dedicated professionals spending long, frequently frustrating hours in their effort to help and protect those who come to them for salvation. When I think of what our world would be like without them...

I am thankful for the comforting, warm, sparkling, shining, soon-to-be dazzling, and deeply satisfying beauty I am slowly creating in my surroundings. Maybe because of all the family trauma and losses experienced in the last year, the emerging growth and renewed vitality of this Spring feels infinitely more meaningful to me than in any other year of my life.

I am thankful for the people who show up just when I am most in need of something or some quality only they can share. That "things happen the way they are supposed to" is a mantra I believe in more and more as I age. Along with,"This, too, shall pass." :-))
