Summer Memories: Echoes1

Fighter jets echo
Their contrails reflect the sun,
Tourist look up,
While locals smile
Remembering we live close
To an Air Force base.

Gratitude List for 18 Qawl

Today I am thankful ...
          ...that I received my new smartphone today.
          ...that my Bank of America checking account is not overdrawn today.

Depression Versus Happiness2

Depression weary
My soul desires happiness
The Glory of God

Gratitude List for 19 Qawl

Today I am thankful ...
          ...that my false teeth didn't break when I dropped them in the sink this morning.
          ...that when I call someone in my smartphone phone book, I can just type in the name and it will find the number. I don't have to copy all the number from my old phone to my new phone. I am going through the same provider, so the numbers were saved to a cloud.
          ...that I have 905 points in my Survey Spot account.
          ...that I received the Christmas letter from Grateful Jess .
          ...that I have 1,382 points in My Survey account.
          ...that my Bank of America checking account is not overdrawn today.
          ...that I have 4,081,862 GPs in my Gift Points account.
          ...that we have electricity in this apartment.
          ...that I have $13.72 in my Send Earnings account.
