- I am fit enough to practice yoga, which I just finished.
- I am fit enough to go for a walk this afternoon and to enjoy the cold.
- My group trusts me and I have the capacity to be the overall treasurer. (Business meeting is tonight.)
- We’re watching a WWII documentary: I don’t know what it is to live through war, either as a combatant or a civilian. No idea. There’s footage of people weeping over loved ones who’ve just been executed in the street; frozen soldiers, dead with their mouths and eyes open; refugees clogging the streets, their homes destroyed. I can try to imagine, but I can’t really. And if that ever does become my reality I will look back on this time with such longing. I don’t know how good it feels not to hurt that badly.
- For example: there’s half a bottle of water sitting on the coffee table in front of me, and I have no real idea how precious it is. Which is why I have to make a conscious effort, as often as I can, to remind myself of these things and practice gratitude as deeply and thoroughly as I can.
Many thanks,
Me
