    Count your blessings

    life is actually pretty wonderful.

    Whoever you are, you must have a best friend. This is wonderful.
    You must have things you like and dislike. This is wonderful.
    You must have memories (good and bad). This is wonderful.
    You must have money in your pocket (else how else can you have a laptop and access this site). This is wonderful.
    You must have skills, hard fought and won. This is wonderful.

    You have opinions, abilities, thoughts, desires, wants and needs. This is wonderful.

    It was a thought that permeated my tiny little brain this evening. My Grandmother (who lived through the blitz - as did all 'nans') always used to tell me us to count our blessings.

    And I am, just counting them this evening. Feel pretty lovely now, and wanted to share the thought with you. No matter if your are benched, in contract, or other, take 10 minutes out to count your blessings.

    Much hugs

    Bless. It's like a chain letter from a 12 year old.

              How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                  I expect you'll be able to hold onto it for quite a while. Not like there is much jostling for position going on.
