30 Days of Appreciation - Day 8

  1. This perfect day - sunny, cool, breezy
  2. Praying outdoors always feels somehow...more joyful.
  3. Being able to serve people through Feed the Hungry at St. Jude's. Today was my first day to do this service, and it was humbling and wonderful. 
  4. Owning a passport and having it here with me (thanks to Don!) - which enabled me to get my CA driver's license. My NYS license and SS card weren't enough I.D. (go figure)
  5. Being a bona fide resident of California.
  6. India Sweets & Spices restaurant. Combo plate at $4.99 and a big ole' cup of masala tea for $1.00.
  7. My own hunger, which is to say missing one meal. This reminds me that some people in the world are lucky to eat one meal a day.
  8. Finding God's true and lasting peace at long last - a thing I never dreamed really existed.
  9. Being loved.
  10. The awesome bathtub in this apartment that is a) deep and b) doesn't have an annoying overflow drain half way down the tub (so I get to fill it up!)
