I thought I’d continue the gratitude theme by listing free stuff that we tend to take for granted but for which we should wholeheartedly give thanks.

A full-moon dominating the night sky. Crystal white sand clinging to one’s feet. Frothy foamy surf. The heady scent of a rosebud. A purring moggie. Naughty giggles. Refreshing monsoon showers. Life-giving H2O. Smiles. Dewdrops on baby leaves. Dancing fireflies. Pleasant dreams. Catchy melodies. Fresh unpolluted air. The Milky Way. Hypnotic crackling flames of fire. Smell of freshly laundered linen. Taste of one’s own salty lips after an ocean swim. The mystical nature of heavy fog magically suspended above land and water. Reflection of clouds in still glassy waters. Migrating birds flying in perfect formation. Pink flamingos elegantly performing a ballet. Sound of echoing voices in a cave. Skin rejuvenating mud. Seashells and sea glass. Bear hugs from humans. Fluttering butterflies. Our miraculous breath. The fragile lacey wings of dragonflies. The unwavering love and loyalty of adoring K9s. Shade from the lush canopy of mature trees. Memorable hues of lilac, pink and orange twilight. Healing meditation. Our surprising tastebuds. Cool lawn to lie on. Gravity defying palm trees. The amazing miracle that is planet Earth.
