September 30

Tonight, I'm chilling in my chair with a fuzzy blanket, my laptop, a steaming cup of hot water (because that's what you drink when you're congested), a plate of crispity-crunchity brownie brittle, and 'The Voice.'

It's a luxuriating kind of evening, and I'm so fortunate to be able to enjoy it. It's essential to always --every second of every day-- be mindful of and grateful for my blessings, no matter how small or trivial they may seem. Try it -- the gratitude makes life instantaneously better.
