When It Rains It Pours

Read on...

It's the thanksgiving weekend. I know its an American tradition but I've had such a brilliant day today I just felt like thanking the universe for its benevolence. So here goes thank you universe for giving me:

-Today, I hope I have many more like this one.

-My family, who proved to me today that they will stick up for me and love me unconditionally.

-My friends, some of them who know me better than me, who make me happy to be alive, especially the ones who made this day what it was.

-The internet (do not take it for granted!!), without which I'd never have had a medium to realize (like today for instance) just how much people care.

-Being alive, watching a documentary on Mumbai's 9/11 horror made me realize again how lucky I am just to be writing this.

-My sense of preservation. The ability to quickly sift between whats real and whats not. To have the courage to to do what's hardest for me to do. To clearly distinguish between 'maybes' and facts that will irreversibly change the course of happiness of my friends and family.

-Love, I've been given so much lately I'm starting to wonder how I got so lucky.

And finally,

-Luck, that which does not come often to me but as they say.. "When it rains it pours"
