Thankful for Grateful

Good Evenin'

And, ya, much better today. I did sleep pretty hard and long, but woke up quite right. And, it was a fair nice day; last of the clouds blew out in the mornin' and a side from a cool blustery wind, it was quite nice. Spring time New Mexico, blustery is way fine; it's the freight train winds that get everyone a little bit edgy and take all our moisture up over to Oklahoma.

Cuttin' back a little on rations, try to gently, encourage the bunch, get after the grass that's startin' to show, but I go about it easy. One hand, I miss 'em when they stop comin' in and other, it don't hurt, if we give the grass a chance to get goin', 'fore the ponies start mowin'.

But, side from feedin' and firewood, spent a fair portion catchin' up with a few friends, been under the weather or weatherin' some trouble. Always interestin' how stuff comes out; with one old friend, who similar, understands the importance of quiet time, we started talkin' about how it changes our lives, in the most fundamental way. Somehow that time to stop and take stock, really does leave ya smaller and grateful, which might sound unimportant, but that simple change of perspective, makes the sweetest difference, it's hard to even get a grasp. I guess that's when the gratitude starts to get ex-ponential; how's that for a "five dollar" word.

Anyway, ex-ponential or why-ponential gratitude is really, really good company and it multiplies easily. Hope you have a nice night.

Best,

jeune
