Very Grateful for:
God’s calendar
A day of very little talking
A middle-length drive with a new book on tape
Edward Herrmann’s calm, intelligent voice
Stopping along the way to eat
Remembering vaguely that I used to hate eating alone; now, I almost relish it
the deep green of fields of winter rye grass
a deep whirlpool tub
going to sleep to the sound of a small, man-made water fountain
The best portion of a good man’s {and woman’s} life is his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and of love.
– William Wordsworth
That’s beautiful, Helen, thank you, happy to imagine you enjoying your own company with soothing sights and sounds.
Thank you for your comment, Garrett! took me awhile to get to this place, as you know. Looking back over my list, I am sad to read today that Edward Herrmann has gone on—he made every artistic project better.
