gratitude themes

workin' on a wedding gift for some friends.
what a story they have.
what a story everyone has!

one thing led to another, and the gift
took on a 'gratitude' theme.

was sittin' here workin' on it thinking
about gratitude.

i wish that i understood that concept
enough to really talk about it.

it is in my top five list of things that
i think create magic.

i have had days without it and those days
have no color, no zest, no life.

my best days are filled with it.

and i am absolutely positive you can't
have a good relationship without it.

makes for a perfect wedding gift theme.

what i wonder tho....every time i think
about it...is.....
is it in the same league as love?

is it one of those things we just cannot
fathom the power of?

is it one of those things that gets tossed
around so much, we forget what it really
means??

i kinda think it is.

and the funny thing?
i don't know how you get it.
when i don't have it, i don't know how
to get it.
it just slips back in. and then it hovers
around me a lot.
but i don't know where it comes from.

i gotta sit with it more than i do and
talk with it a bit, ya know?

i think there's secrets of the ages mixed
in there......
