Beautifully written - full of life! Love the opening description of the waking up and the thoughts that you weave into the piece till its wonderful affirmative conclusion! To have felt and savoured that moment of satisfaction is very fulfilling, god bless...may you have many more... Do you have a daughter or a son?

Beautifully written. I especially love the last line..."Yes, today has been a good day." It is so important to live one day at a time. Some days will be better than others. We need to remember these GOOD days while we suffer through a not so good day.

Thanks, Sheila, and you are right. We need to remember the good days and to cherish the memories. :)

You are so special.
