Gratitude 2024

I’ve got so much to be thankful for. I hate to reduce it all to a bulleted list but one of the things that I am thankful for is bulleted lists. The problem with a list is that I am bound to miss some big things. So, let’s call this “a couple of things for which I am grateful.”

-My friend Tim invited me to Thanksgiving dinner. I am grateful for friends who will always be there for me.

-My kids are amazing. I am grateful for the opportunity to spend time with them and to see what fantastic things they will do next.

-I’m grateful for my family and especially my sister. It’s insane that she has my back even though she knows about every skeleton in every closet.

-I can’t forget ice cream. What would life be without ice cream?

-I’m grateful for half-formed songs that mysteriously show up out of the ether.

-Coffee, the smell of baking bread, a hot shower, and the unconditional loyalty of a dog

-If you have read anything that I have written or listened to anything that I have sung, thank you. You give my life purpose and a sense of purpose is often in short supply. I am grateful for a sense of purpose.

-I am grateful for you. This world wouldn’t be the same without you.
