Lying in bed thinking of some of the things I can be grateful for:

  • I have a wonderful wife who loves me and looks after me 💕💚
  • Old friends and family visited yesterday for afternoon tea and a fish and chip dinner 💕
  • Children stayed for a wide ranging discussion that included ‘How long could you survive by yourself on a desert island?’, to son talking about IT qualifications he’s doing for his post-construction job
  • More old friends coming to a 1970s themed dinner tonight — salmon mousse and cheese fondue
  • New line of cancer treatment might be showing signs of positive response (early days but fingers crossed 🤞😷
  • Dedicated Dharma teachers who guide me on a spiritual path that is meaningful to me🙏🕉️
  • Inspiring people on social media and in real life communities who are trying to make the world a better place — it doesn’t always feel like it, but there are a lot of us
  • Knowing that most people are essentially good and want the best for everyone
