Today I am grateful for the following:
- the self-control Éa is demonstrating as she practices her first riff on her new Washburn Maverick electric guitar (“Smoke On The Water,” of course)—let’s hope she has the self-control enough to power through the rut of learning your first riff and never moving past it because it’s the only thing you’ve mastered;
- the goodness of setting aside time to walk, read, engage in hobbies, and journal. May my good friend learn it, too;
- the faithfulness of Carla, my wife of coming on fifteen years next year. Whoa.
