Gratitude Latitude # 22

Gratitude for....

Fog and sun so close along a morning timeline they seem lovers - ahhhh San Francisco!

The Wire - what can I say? I love that show - Balmer and real pOleese.

A.J. Roach - twang, country mountain - music that is almost sad unless you picture sitting on a mountain cabin front porch in a rocker seeing the world from a storytellers eyes. Everything in the context of everything else.

Fiddle

Little kids running

Light breezes

Memories of a walk in a thunderstorm in the Blue Ridge Mountains with an old friend and his daughter. He taught to be excited when the thunder clapped. There was a meadow running along the side of the road we walked along. There was a white washed old baptist church with someone practicing a song for Sunday.

The smell of wet ground.

That life keeps giving me lesson after lesson of how happiness, peace, stability.... and all the rest of those yummy feelings and ideas and states.... these do not exist outside of oneself. They live inside. The one exception is when they are experienced through the love with another or in community. These are shared inward states. The desperate need for others to provide us these things has been at the center of so much heartache and disappointment. Lately with the challenges at work, I have seen people become so upset because the illusion that others can provide this for them. It is another case for taking complete responsibility for ourselves.
