What a miserable thing life is: you're living in clover, only the clover isn't good enough. ~Bertolt Brecht, Jungle of Cities, 1924

My gratitude today is for my eyesight. I had an eye doctor appointment today and it looks like I might have to have cataract surgery in my left eye next year. After I was done with my appointment, I realized how blessed I was to be able to see (even though it is with thick lensed glasses) and I gave thanks that there are modern medical advances that can give me that peace of mind.
