Why I think this is a beautiful world and I have much to be grateful for - friends who send me flowers while I heal from a small surgery.
The smallest things in this world delight me. Working with and teaching young children for much of my life taught me patience and an appreciation for finding beauty in the most unexpected places. Knowing how to slow down and really look at the world that surrounds us is beneficial for one's mind, body and spirit. May we all learn the lessons that children already seem to know.

Yeshua/Jesus spoke to them again: "I am the light of the world; whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light which gives life."
I'm sure our levels of appreciation have risen dramatically over the past 12 months.....whether it be for our friends and families or just for the ability to stand with the falling sun warming our backs and our gaze turned skywards!

"Appreciate again and again, freshly and naively,
the basic goods of life, with awe,
pleasure, wonder and even ecstasy,
however stale these experiences may have become to others."

Forget yesterday – it has already forgotten you. Don’t sweat tomorrow – you haven’t even met. Instead, open your eyes and your heart to a truly precious gift – today ~ Steve Maraboli
For years, we have walked the trails in our local park. However, today I had a new appreciation for all it offers. I managed to walk about 2 km unassisted on this lovely trail that is paved for the whole way in the park. It was perfect because it was even ground and there are many benches set up strategically along the way. If I needed a break, I could sit before going on. I must have passed about 12 benches and I only used one. Today was a good day. On my more challenging days I might use 3 benches. My hubby went on his longer walk and met me at the little restaurant in the park when he was done. I had the option of grabbing a coffee if I was done sooner. However, we had driven to the park so I had my Rollator in the car with my camera. I got it out and walked along the same path trying to capture a few images. It was so wonderful spending the morning like this and having options to be independent in a reassuring way.
We went to downtown Seattle for the Gallery Walk. But first, Wilbur had to make a stop for artistic appreciation.
Kahn in the old Terrace Falls Baths. It was hot and humid so he needed to cool off near the end of our walk.
A kind of cozy magic that makes the wait and appreciation for Christmas so special: warm lights, sweet scents, and little scenes that spark childhood wonder. It’s the season where even the smallest details feel like promises of joy to come.
So I missed Ginger Cat Appreciation Day (yesterday) but every day is Ginger Cat Appreciation Day around here.

At the end of 2020, the MRL unveiled two locomotives that were wrapped in two special schemes to show appreciation to both veterans and essential workers. The MRL 4404 was wrapped to thank Essential Workers such as the railroaders that keep America's freight moving as well as all others working through this pandemic. The MRL 4407 was wrapped to thank those that have served, and includes decals from each branch of the US Military as well as one commemorating the USS Montana, a Virginia class submarine for the US Navy that has been under construction since 2015 and is slated to be delivered in early 2021. Both are paired up on an LM sailing past Columbus on a gorgeous winter day.
