It takes a toll to make you care...

"Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings." And isn't that the truth? Today I am finally feeling some peace. My thoughts have been racing for months and I have not felt at peace with any aspect of my life. Last night I had the opportunity to go to dinner with Mardele. We talked about various things and I don't know what it was that really hit me but after leaving dinner I felt like I was clear. I have been so focussed on what's not working in my life that I haven't taken the opportunity to be grateful for what is working. It has been almost a year since I made a gratitude list and I feel like now, more than ever, it is time. So I am grateful for......
