Is this how a magnet feel?
Tense,
polarized to attract;
ready to draw good fortune
out of the ether,
to create happiness
out of the atoms of existence.

Gratitude List for 5 Qawl

Today I am thankful ...
          ...that my Bank of America checking account is not overdrawn today.
          ...for fresh brewed coffee on this beautiful autumn morning.
          ...that I was able to set up the cox payment for November 30, the day one of my checks is supposed to hit my bank.
          ...for the breakfast pastry I had with my coffee.
          ...that I have 283 points in my Survey Junkie account.
          ...for the spaghetti and meat balls I had for supper.
