( new year's resolution thingy )
Gratitude posts have to be tweaked a bit, life threw at me a few unexpected punches and I didn't roll with it as well as I could have. But:
Day Three:
Being able to read. I'm really grateful for that. I don't think about it much but there's so much you can do with it - learn, imagine. Read history, feel like you're there. Or imagine the future with sci-fi, entirely different worlds with fantasy. And internet has made it much easier to find things.
Day Four:
Critical thinking - I've been taught that, encouraged and had plenty of opportunities to hone argumentive skills with my family. See, that's looking at things with a positive light. *grins* I like being able to see facts and conclude from my own reasoning what's going on, not have to rely on someone else to tell me what opinion I should have.
Day Five:
A sense of humour. You can get through life and the hardest things if you just know when to laugh, when to realize things are damn funny if you look at them in the right light. It means nothing's impossible.

Oh, and I thought of reading as a gratitude first, I didn't lift from Kei. I just was slow in writing the other two and by that time she had already posted, and I was horrified. LOL!
