Striving for a life of gratitude....

Gawd today is a beautiful day!!
(Bitter sweet and in flux for other reasons but still, dang day, you gorgeous!)

My bike ride up the Don Valley path and down to the Park and Canary district included a great phone convo with my dear old HS friend.
Been keeping in touch with him every now and then lately since he happened to call coincidentally at a hard time in my life. Him and his wife recommended a workshop thing to try the other day and they were checking up on me. How very sweet!

Sometimes I can be taken back by the thoughtfulness of some people. 
I'm so very thankful for the friends (and family of course) that I have. 

I don't know how people could do it,
this thing called life,
without people like these in their life.

Life gets pretty much chaotic and to find and keep friends who truly care, no matter how often you keep in touch or not, is a blessing in itself.
I was thinking how I wish there was more of these kinds. To surround my self by and maybe drown in their goodness. Maybe then, it would be like having a stealthy shield against anyone else who could hurt you.
