Grateful for You
A noble person is mindful and thankful for the favors he receives from others. Buddha
Carefully, my small eight year old hands drew a bird in a tree on red construction paper. Next, I slowly copied my poem and story. On the last page I wrote, “What do you think of my book?” with lines below for my parents to write their responses to my first book.
From the beginning, writing was an attempt for me to create dialogue. Even when I began my first diary in fourth grade, I wrote to an imaginary Anne Frank, whose book inspired me. As time passed, my journals became a source of reflection, documentation, and creative expression.
When I found Word Press, a conscious, creative communication I longed for grew into a diverse community spanning the globe. While we may not be able to talk over our fences or visit for tea, I treasure our virtual conversations.
What I love about you is that even though we live in different countries, our ages aren’t the same, and our experiences are varied we still find common ground in appreciation of beauty, compassion, love for the earth, motivation for progressive change, justice, peace, innovation and creativity.
Thanks, Ron.
