Occasionally it does a soul good to reflect on something for which they are grateful. Exploring one’s gratefulness can seriously increase one’s sense of contentment. I found myself, today, standing outside leaning against my car in the parking lot and listening to the new spring frogs croaking enjoying the warmth of the spring day. My thoughts were wandering from the frogs calling their mates to the warm breeze blowing my hair. In that moment all my troubles were elsewhere and I was truly there, living in the moment. I was feeling an emotional state that is unfamiliar to me, but was so peaceful. Because I no longer have two lives, one visible and public and one invisible and private, the place of peace was not perverted by the private life to its own devices. The unfamiliar emotional state was, in fact, simple contentment, peace. Today, with my two lives merged into one, I was able to feel that peace. I love feeling that peace. I am grateful for that peace.
