Sitting near the fire, reading. Reflecting.
Was an interesting, hectic, wonderful day that ended with me eating, drinking and playing games with close friends and second family while listening to Christmas music.
Even dragged Auro up for a dance during Silent Night. Not the usual dance song, but the mood struck me.
While I strive to accomplish so much more, I take moments like these to be immensely grateful for what I have now. I have a home, I have food, I have warmth. I've not always had these things. Some still don't.
I know that all I have won't always be here, and in the many vicissitudes of my life, I have learned to appreciate what I have while I have it. Whatever that may be.
So tonight, I reflect on all I have to be grateful for. While fighting off a sneeze, damn cat allergies... and sit back to read while the log fire dies down.
Hope everyone is bundled up, warm, and safe tonight.
Sleep well, and many fortunes to you.
