Cancellations

 The pandemic has cancelled a lot of activities.  People talk about all the things they cannot do.  Their focus is on activities.  But what about attitudes?  Did Covid cancel them too?  Someone said, “Covid did not cancel joy.”  For me, joy follows gratitude.  I wake up and ask myself what am I grateful for?  And I can always find something to be grateful for if I review what I do have and what is presented so freely to me.  Standard time has given me back earlier morning light.  I love the mornings.  The seasons of the year I did not create.  Fall has its own unique beauty.  With gratitude I can then become a gift to others.  Covid cannot take that away from me.
