You know, each morning as I clamber out of bed and stretch to the skies, I try to give thanks. But then as the day progresses, the petty irritations and time pressures melt down and coat my higher self and I forget the miracles that sprout on every hand. I came across the lyrics of an old album from the 70's that contained the song Ten Lepers - from the Biblical parable. Ten were healed and only one returned to give thanks. The last paragraph is:

"Thank you Lord, for the summer sun,
For sight and song and good deeds done,
Faith and family and loving friends,
For the day that begins and the night that ends."


Simple. But the world.
