Wednesday’s blog mentioned that I’ve received unexpected gifts during this time of uncertainty, and I quoted Etty Hillesum. Here’s another Hillesum quote I love:
“As life becomes harder and more threatening, it also becomes richer, because the fewer expectations we have, the more good things of life become unexpected gifts that we accept with gratitude.”
Here are three gifts in my life that I accept with gratitude.
My Husband’s Loving Presence
“Writing with Nani” Facetime Sessions with my two Grandsons
Connecting with Others in My Community – this is our afternoon DJ as we all come together (6 feet apart) to sing along and dance.
Six feet apart from our neighbors, but fortunately not from each other.
Zoom dates with siblings and friends
Delivering chocolate chip cookies to grandkids
Love it!
I love that your lamp looks like the outline of a house as you talk to your family. Be well!
You’re right, Terri! I didn’t even notice that.
