Today, I am thankful tearfully for a few things.
1. I am thankful for the beautiful turquoise blue ocean I got to see every day. The color soothed me, the water and waves thrilled me. What can I say… I just love the ocean.
What do these three things have in common? Well, they would all need to be present for my ideal personal holiday. This would be a retreat just for me, a meditative space. I would love to go away for at least two weeks by myself. I would take minimal things, most important in my luggage would be my books to read, journal to write in, sketch book to work in and computer on which to work on my children’s books.
This week I have 3 big things to be thankful for.
1. I am thankful for the space we have around our RV. It has certainly made our stay so much more wonderful, as the kids have room to do their thing.
My first experience with the French language was when we had a teacher from Togo come to my school in Nigeria and teach us a little bit of French. Togo is a neighbor of Nigeria’s and while Nigeria is an English speaking country, Togo is French. I fell in love. I cannot even remember what we learned now, but I still remember the feeling of love at hearing the first beautiful lyrical sounds of French.
