  1. … the end of a semester that frees me to study what I choose at my own pace.
  2. … healthy children.
  3. … the mother of my children.
  4. … my mother.
  5. … my new-found positive outlook.

  1. … the chance that I’ve had to get to know my wife.
  2. … the renewed knowledge that sleep is important. I haven’t made sleep a priority this weekend, and it shows. I’m grateful that I’m aware enough of that to take correction.
  3. … the chance that I have every day to take walks while at work.
  4. … the relationship that I have with my daughters so far. May I continue to nurture it.
  5. … my ability to learn new things.

  1. … a half-baked idea for a new blog (shh! don’t tell anyone about it yet) that I’m really excited about. I think I’ll have fun with it even if no one else pays attention (which is a good sign).
  2. … the chance to learn stuff, one of my favorite things to do.
  3. … the opportunity to watch the crazy, improbable miracle of life as I watch young things sprout and grow.
  4. … the perspective that watching things die gives me.
  5. … the good fun I have with my wife.

  1. I’m not a sex slave. I wonder how much porn features sex slaves.
  2. I get to take a class this semester on linear systems theory.
  3. I have a loving family.
  4. I like the people that I work with.
  5. I have so much art so readily available to me.
