I've done quite a bit of reading over the years, and listening too, to people who seem to have had a bit of a handle on life. They may not have the 'answers', but they do have some wise words and have imparted to many, a profound kind of thinking about how we look at our lives - not just the years lived, or the months, or days, but each minute. I was moved in recent days by reading about 'gratitude' and the practice of it. The benefits seem to be very real. So, as part of being reflective and taking an active role in where our journey is taking us, I've started this project. My aim is to regularly take a photo of something for which I am grateful, and reflect on that. They may be small gratitudes, or bigger picture ones. I'd love to see your stories too! Feel free to comment and share your contributions. :)

Children Playing the Role Played By Us As Their Parents
Talking to my son about the issues we are dealing with, he said:
"It's not apocalyptic you know."
Helps get one's perspective in place. Thanks Steve.
ps: whose shadow is that to the left of Mel Gibson in this photo?
