I Am Thankful For
"be specific and write with conviction"Above was the little note I wrote to remind myself what I wanted to talk about in this entry. That was a couple of days ago and my mind has changed.
I'm going to write about robots. With giant lasers that can cut through titanium.
Actually, I think I'll write about what I am thankful for. I am thankful for everything. That's pretty much what I wanted to avoid. Be specific, he said. Write with conviction, he said.
I am thankful for my family. I am thankful for what I have right now: a good life, a great job, fantastic friends, wonderful colleagues, and an understanding family. I am thankful for stability in an unstable world. I am thankful for the ability to enjoy the little things in life for goodness knows that not everyone in the world can do the same. I am thankful for little things like Troy. (I am thankful she didn't drop him.)I am thankful for robots. With giant lasers that can cut through titanium. And make toast. Yeah, it has to be able to make buttered toast.
