We just got back from an out of town trip and before I even recount our adventures, I suddenly felt an overpowering wave of gratefulness, so I end tonight with thoughts, thanks, hopes, and prayers.

I complain often of how stillness is elusive but this weekend reminded me that my opportunities outweigh my perceived limitations. That I am in control and able while others are without a choice.

I worry about not having enough while others worry about not having any. This weekend reminded me to be thankful of challenging work as it is a means to not only making ends meet but living leisurely.

I pray to be grateful. I hope to not forget.

I hope to work hard. I pray to remember everyday.

I pray to be humbled. I hope to be good.
