5 things.
Five simple, little things - or - five complex, huge things. Just five things I am supposed to name each week that I am grateful for. It's from a study. Says people that do this are happier. Figured I could always use some extra happy so here it is.

This week's Fab Five.

1. My best friends. I have quite a few and I am happy to be able to claim that some of them are family. They listen, cajole and encourage better than any shrink in the history of the world.. My cornerstones.

2. Ginger's selfless doggie love. Because it will never fade or be tarnished. She will love me until one of us perishes. The love of an animal is a special thing.

3. The unchanging heavenly Father who has so many plans to enrich my life. My protector. My creator. How I love Him.

4. Reliable transportation. Whether my car, my bicycle or my healthy two feet I can get where I need to go without fuss.

5. Hands. To hold. To lift you up. To help.To touch. To type. Everything about hands intrigues me. What marvelous mechanisms they are. Intricately designed and assembled. No two sets alike. Each built specifically for the human for which they belong. They are the human ID. They are how I feel the world around me. Amazing things, hands. Amazing.

So there it is. My 5 for April 28th 2012. I actually feel better.
