This life, you must know as the tiny splash of a raindrop.
A thing of beauty that disappears as it comes into being.
Therefore, set your goal.
Make use of every day and every night.
tibetan buddhist - tsongkhapa
71. I am grateful for language. From the tiniest phrase, to the long strings of letters you have to really wrap your tongue around. The beauty and the constant changes in the landscape of our mouths. Dirty, profane, loving, stammered, hesitant and rambling. I love language.
72. I am grateful for window screens. So that I can keep the breeze flowing through the house all day without the bees getting in.
73. I am grateful for the dishwasher. I think that's fairly self-explanatory.
74. I am grateful for good friends who don't let you settle, that see the best parts of you, and take unorthadox measures to help you find them too.
75. I am grateful for glasses with handles. It's the only way I've managed to pour water from the cooler into a glass with one hand for the last 4 weeks.
76. I love the way my muscles feel during a really great stretch.
77. I love the huge freckle on my left shoulder.
78. I love the smell of vanilla. That warm, comfortable, sexy smell that makes me want to jump naked into soft white cotton sheets.
79. I love to see the moment where a person suddenly loses their inhibitions. When they laugh so hard they snort, or they go into an ugly cry.
80. I love my iPod.
