my grateful journal: December 2010
http://gratefuljournal.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Friday, December 31, 2010. Today, I am thankful for important people. New Year's eve is like every other night; there is no pause in the march of the universe, no breathless moment of silence among created things that the passage of another twelve months may be noted; and yet, no man has quite the same thoughts this evening that come with the coming of darkness on other nights. My work colleague, Pete. Greta (CS's beloved Weimaraner).

There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Saturday, August 06, 2011. Today, I am thankful for summer colors. The summer blooming season is in full swing. Like a color-happy artist, my garden paints my miniscule corner of the Earth with hues that reflect many moods: cool and warm, muted and intense. Please don't ask me to name my favorite. For this blessing, I am thankful. Today, I am thankful for morning light. Cleome stand tall in front of the old cedar fence. The string be...

There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Thursday, November 25, 2010. Today, I am thankful. Thanksgiving comes to us out of the prehistoric dimness, universal to all ages and all faiths. At whatever straws we must grasp, there is always a time for gratitude and new beginnings. We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures. For my many blessings, I am grateful. Wednesday, November 10, 2010. First Snow, Final Harvest. This evening...

my grateful journal: T turns 15
http://gratefuljournal.blogspot.com/2011/12/t-turns-15.html
There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Sunday, December 18, 2011. Today, I am so thankful for T as we celebrate his 15th birthday. Yes, T is still with us. After T's leg surgery in June, S and I weren't optimistic that he would make it to age 15. But he did. Happy birthday to our most precious fellow. Despite what others may claim, you are the indisputable best doggie in the whole Universe, the best dog that ever lived. We love you so much. T - still as handsome as ever at 15.

my grateful journal: Morning light
http://gratefuljournal.blogspot.com/2011/08/morning-light.html
There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Saturday, August 06, 2011. Today, I am thankful for morning light. On workdays, T usually rouses me around 4:30 AM when he gets up to reposition himself on his sleeping blanket. My clock is set for a 5:05 AM wake-up call, so for the next half-hour, I lie in bed anticipating the alarm's "ding-ding-ding". In other words, T goes back to sleep while I hover in a half-asleep/half-awake state. For this blessing, I am grateful. Give us thankful...

my grateful journal: February 2011
http://gratefuljournal.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Wednesday, February 09, 2011. Today, I am thankful for a timely gift. A bitter cold morning with sub-zero temperatures, again. Arctic cold fronts just love to settle along the Front Range. To top things off, I had a really bad morning at work and just couldn't shake off the negative energy and offense. Fortunately, my guardian angel made sure that this oft cited quote from Dean Koontz found its way to me. Dean Koontz in From the Corner o...

my grateful journal: T's Healed Leg
http://gratefuljournal.blogspot.com/2011/07/ts-healed-leg.html
There shall be eternal summer in the grateful heart. Celia Thaxter. Sunday, July 31, 2011. Today, I am thankful for T's healed leg. S and I removed the bandage from T's right foreleg. Except for a few small red spots along the incision scar, the site is healed. T, sans bandage, does what he does best - taking a long, quiet nap on a hot summer afternoon in Colorado. For this blessing, I am very grateful. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The unthankful heart. discovers no mercies; but let the thankf...
