Gratitude List....because tonight is hard.
1. My apartment, for being my sanctuary, in times both of laughter and light as well the opposite, and even during things which are both.
2. My bunny, because she is the cutest thing in the world, and she's entirely willing to consent to being pet.
3. Bath and Body Works Sensual Amber body spray. My newest favorite fragrance in the world.
4. The truth, because sometimes it sucks but it sucks a whole lot better than a lie, even a well meaning one you can see through.
5. The cold weather outside, because I've sat outside watching the sky, and it's a good companion for this night.
6. My journal, for being here this long, for being something I rely on and trust in so completely.
7. My journal being only three posts (after this one) away from the 5,000 posts mark.
8. Friends who tell you their honest opinion/advice and then are willing to get out of the way and let you make up your own mind.
9. Having plans in the morning so there are things to do and people to see when the new day starts.
10. Sleep. Because it is beautiful. With the dreaming. And the resting. And the ever present container of other worlds.
With that I think I will try sleeping a little.
