eucharist

For clogged arteries of the interstate highway system that represent people able to travel to be with family, I am thankful.

For children who mix and mingle with grown ups rather than finding a hiding place and plugging their ears with tiny speakers that alienate them from the world, but instead desire to share their interests with the adults who are important to them, I am thankful.

For adults who cherish, converse with, play with, hug, and show genuine interest in the interests of the children, I am thankful.

For a sound-asleep-woman whose body still feels like magic after 19 years on a cold morning, I am thankful.

For children who eat broccoli, I am thankful.

For healthy parents, I am thankful.

For generations gathered, I am thankful.

For gyms, I am thankful.

For peace that passes understanding, I am thankful.
