And, just as you point out, there is always something to focus on, to acknowledge, and be grateful for. @ Frank: Heh, I actually took that into consideration before I wrote it.

And now they are very sad. hahah jk. Even if that were true, at least they have eyes? :oP :o) But yes, we all have things we should be thankful for and sometimes take for granted. :o) Hands!

No food before my tea, as always. I agree, sencha can sometimes be a touch irritating on the stomach. But whenever it is, which is not always, it's only mildly so. Those are certainly two excellent opportunities for focusing on the wonderful gift: hands! @ Jo: Good to see you. No food before my tea, as always.

I sure hope you had some food before your cup, right. These Japanese Greens can be pretty darn harsh on your system. I'll give the subject of hands some thought today. I'll focus on what I could not do without them. Two things I have planned for today would certainly not be possible without hands: a bit of rock-climbing and sampling some pu-erh that just arrived (I guess I could just try gnawing off the leaves from a beeng cha...) So long, Jo Bamboo Forest,

You go through each thing that you take for granted, like your eye-sight, your ability to hear, and so on, and you imagine that you lost them. Now think of how grateful you'd be if you suddenly got them back! You know Bamboo, I once read of a gratitude exercise that’s very similar to what you suggest here.
