on counting blessings

So sometimes we rely on friends to remind us of what is really important in life.

As for me, my blessings go far and wide. But for the moment, I speak only of these blessings that I hold dear inside me.

I am blessed with a son who is thriving and brilliant and wise.

I am blessed with ex-step-children who want to stay relevant in my heart and my life.

I am blessed with a family and troop of sisters and tributaries who love me.

I am blessed with the attention and friendship of beautiful and interesting and talented people everywhere I go, and the world over.

I am blessed with good health and this demanding talent and imagination and fire all my own.

And I am blessed with you.

And if you (whoever you are reading this...) think I mean you, I do!

I love you.
