“I cannot pretend I am without fear. But my predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved; I have been given much and I have given something in return; I have read and traveled and thought and written. I have had an intercourse with the world, the special intercourse of writers and readers.
Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and adventure.”
— Oliver Sacks
DAILY GRATITUDE
I’m feeling so grateful today after a very long day of travel and the party preparation. My gratitude list may be a little wonky today, but it’s honest.
Partnerships that turn to deep friendships
Friends who laugh and eat with equal gusto
Sore feet and muscles that prove I put in a good day of work
Delicious food
Chicago’s warm and friendly folks
