This week’s topic for reflection is gratitude. Please pause and remember your good friends. Consider how your life has been enriched by them. Notice the natural world around you. The air, the beautiful sunset, flowing clear streams, birds singing, the day turning into night. There is a grocery store near here with all kinds of things to eat and I have plenty of money to purchase whatever I need. Our water heater died yesterday and I was able to replace it with a new one and install it with tools I know how to use. My wonderful wife Senkei gives me so much joy and satisfaction. She is so important to me in so many ways. My wonderful children. Zen practice that goes on and on and everyone who has shared it with me and encouraged me.
Take the time to notice what you’re grateful for and to appreciate it. Gratitude effects the relationship. Gratitude effects how we are in the world. Gratitude helps us be more alive and open to the world around us. Thank you.
