Starting a thankful blog...


In daily life we must see that it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but gratefulness that makes us happy.

Grateful For My Geet

I am grateful that I own a guitar. That I know a few chords. That I can write lines that rhyme. That I can create tunes. I am grateful that I can put my poems to melodies and create songs on my guitar. I know I'm not the best at it. I don't really know exactly what I'm doing. I've had no education in the matter. But I do know that getting these bottled up feelings set into rhythm sure makes me feel lots better. It makes my jumbled thoughts sound like there's some sort of clarity to the amiss in my clattered brain. On days like today, I sure am grateful for my geet.
