Gratitude for two varieties of mangoes and other things..

The energy to shift the dark clouds just not there and the ups and downs in doing the simplest of tasks , fighting with the thoughts of negativity which don't create motivation

Always though.. check for gratitude as a way of staying on level

- for the two varieties of mangoes - buxton spice and the other one with the custard flavour and which should not be sliced but just sucked out , and which finishes in 1 minute
- for the passion fruit which is not bitter or sour , but sweet in a way which is not sugar
- for getting up every time that I don't feel like moving
- for singing Ramayana twice this week, under bottom house.. like back in the days.. 
- for the contract which will be intense, there is uncertainty
- for the food and the conversation in an unlikely place
- for the late night phone call with someone who had stopped talking to me and with whom we have nervous conversations
- for the woman sharing her joy as she plans her academic 'summer' .. her house repairs will wait she says..
- for being able to be useful
- for all the distractions and coping mechanisms.. they might all be short term but they worked
