Practicing Thankfulness

Yesterday was one of those great days. I woke up not too late and not too early. I picked up my room a bit. I showered, did my hair, and dressed up. I received my delivery of food for the week. I walked to the store to buy hemp milk. It was chilly but sunny. There was a free Tibet march. I took a picture for Instagram. I ate homemade cereal. I had a filling bean salad for lunch. I went to see a friend’s play. He was great. It was great. I caught up with a castmate from Out In The Open. I met up with Andrew in Union Square. Walked to H&M and returned some clothes. Walked to CPK and had a dinner filled with conversation that ran the gamut from silly to political (fashion and pop culture to gay politics and racism/anti-racism). We stopped by the gelato place on my corner, sat in the living and talked for hours with my roommate while a Diana Ross concert from 1983 (that hasn’t aired on TV since!) played in the background.

It was everything I wanted my Saturday to be.

When life goes “right,” I’m practicing noticing it and appreciating it. Every day, every moment, I have the opportunity to be fulfilled. What do you cherish from today?
