Gratitude

I have emailed my gratitude list each Monday-Friday since April 2004. That would be approximately 350 lists, each one unique. The mailing list as of this morning totalled 51 humans. No cats or dogs. From today, I am now putting my daily list here. Those 51 recipients have been notified and I hope they will follow me, but if they don't, that's OK. I don't create the list for them or anyone else. I do it for moi.
