I say thanks every day for every minute and I marvel constantly at the mysteriousness of it all. It's good to be here. It's also good to be here with all the other people that are here in this moment. Like you! My philosophy exactly.

I have a very hard time sometimes appreciating how lucky I am. We're always broke, and can't afford to move into a nicer home in a nicer neighborhood, but we're broke because I get to stay home raising my lovely daughter, who drives me to drink sometimes, but if I were working, I would miss out on how cute she is when she wants to cuddle on my lap, or how she dances around to her favorite movies, or how groovy she looks in her rainbow-striped footie pajamas. Thanks!<br/><br/>(oh, and thanks for the tripod tip! I'll have to try it!) Thanks for sharing your own thoughts and erica’s. I have a very hard time sometimes appreciating how lucky I am.

Healthy people take their health for granted. Besides more people die of old age and accidents daily than dies of illness in this country.
