Today, I was grateful to have the day off.  I didn't sleep in a lot, so I was grateful that I still woke up well-rested.  I met a friend for breakfast at a place I hardly go to because it gets so busy, but I'm grateful to have a place in town with such a cool atmosphere and such good food.  Anyway, he's a friend I've had since 3rd grade, so I'm very grateful we've been close friend for so long.  He's getting divorced, because his wife has been very emotionally abusive to him for a very long time, and I'm grateful that I can be there to support him in that.  Later on, my dog rushed out the door for the first time and ran across the street, and I'm grateful she didn't get run over.  I'm also grateful she came back, and she was very grateful when I walked her at a park later on.  That park is really cool and artsy, and I'm grateful it's only changed in small mostly-good ways, because I used to go there a lot when I was depressed, and the entire place just kind of makes me feel a wave of conflicting emotions.  We went shopping later, and I'm grateful to have gotten through pretty cheap.  Also, I tried a maple salmon jerky, and I'm grateful that it didn't feel like a waste of two dollars.

Now that I'm home and writing this, I'm feeling grateful for the fact that I can justified-ly feel good about the progress I've made, and continue to make, as a person in general.

Today, I'm grateful for my friends. Yeah, it's a basic answer, but they are amazing. As I write this, one of them's pretty much knocked out on the couch behind me. She works so hard every day and I want the best for that sweet girl. She is so warm and gentle and kinder to me than I am to myself, admittedly. So yeah- I'm really grateful for her, even though it's a pretty basic answer.

I am grateful for the Sun

For it's shining some light

In my dark dungeon of a life

I am grateful for the Laughters

For they show me that

There are more sounds than wailing

I am grateful for the Sleep

For it lets me take a rest

From the unending chatters in my head.
