In All Things

Recently an old friend mocked me for living such a privileged life that it is easy for me to live in meditative gratitude. Since, I’ve carefully considered what he said.

A book I read says, “In all things, give thanks.” Also, I know that gratitude is good for the human system, even boosting immunity.

Today the headlines are scary. Our life experiences have been altered. Still, the gambrel quail run across the yard. The sun rises and then shines and then sets. Spring’s pink and yellow blooms burst forth. This morning’s moon was a beautiful sliver. We have enough food.

Regardless of what happens tomorrow, I choose to live in love today.

In these days, what is your choice?
