Gratitude Latitude #10

Posted on Jul 9th, 2008 by Andrei : Perennial Integrator Andrei
Waves of gratitude for:

  1. My father who would have been 65 today.  He passed in February.  Our relationship was strained for much of the last decade plus, but we loved each other and I had some very special memories with him which I am thankful for.  Dad - remember those pancakes you made us in the shape of dinosaurs and mickey mouse.  I was thinking of them the other day.
  2. Arts and Crafts style - Greene and Greene brothers - thanks for affirming in your work what my heart has always wanted to see in wood, stone, tile and copper.  Genius.
  3. Global Footprint Network
  4. Coworkers who don't give up and for a team that works together across timezones and cultures. I am thinking about Alexey's wedding in Kiev and hearing the Scorpions singing Winds of Change - "Did you ever think that we could be so close.. like brothers".  So much to change still but working together is a start. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taVW8Kv2HcQ
  5. Vornado fans on a hot day
  6. Women with tattoos in the Mission District of San Francisco in summer.
  7. Primavera of Sonoma Salsa and vegan tamales and jasmine rice Sherry made.
  8. Rootbeer and iced tea - next to water they are the best beverages on the planets
  9. The thing in me that won't let me quit, that causes me pain when I am not on my path, that knows when I must make amends or when I have not done my best.  Whatever that is and wherever it came from, I have infinite gratitude for its existence and its persistence in helping me shape my life.
