In life a grateful heart can be wonderful,
It doesn’t wait for those extraordinary moments,
Those extraordinary moments to feel alive.
It finds joy in many things,
Like the sound of rain against a window,
The warmth of a loved ones embrace,
The comfort of familiar places,
And the simple pleasure of waking,
Waking each day with another chance,
Another chance to begin again.

Good write Gold. We 'began again' this day in 1805, you and I, aboard Nelson's ship. Did we sail forth to 'Victory (HMS)'?
Thank you Orchi. Yes we wet to 'Victory' but you still managed to lose Nelson.
Yes, it was my fault he got injured too. Doh!
