Inspired by the 365grateful project by Hailey Bartholomew. I began this blog on February 28, 2014, my 46th birthday, and challenged myself to take a few moments from each day (for 365 days) to reflect on something I am grateful for, something that brings me joy or makes me smile. Mission accomplished. Then 4 years whooshed by and I have started up all this good stuff again at age 51. Here goes...the goal is at least a gratitude post each week. Cheers!

Maya
Thank you, Maya Angelou, for enlightening me with your writings. I was 20 when I first read "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings". 26 years later I remember the way it made me feel...it was one of the most soulful, honest, and beautiful novels I had experienced. I was moved by your words then, and that book still stays on my mind in my adulthood. I hope you know that your novels, poetry...all of your work will continue to enlighten, spread peace, and bring comfort to many future generations. You are a bright star that will always shine. Rest in peace.
