Both you and Mary

Speak deeply of gratitude

With such mindfulness...

Thank you Julia for sharing your own experience as well as the experience of others you admire. Many say we are the sum total of the friends we hang out with. Thank you for expanding that to the poets we read and the beliefs we hold and yes, the gratitude we are moved to mindfully express.
