Write down whatever comes to mind which you are grateful for.

This should be good. ;)


I'll go first.

I'm grateful for being able to remember what happened five minutes ago.

[Hazelnut]

And for this. I just remembered.

[Hazelnut]

Obviously. Wrong place, wrong time, wrong audience.

:(

Anyway, I'm glad I've been on hold with UEC for the last 30 days. The anticipation of an actual response is building to a crescendo.

[skunk]

Hazel, don't be offended if no one responds to your threads, it happens to me all the time lol. Your best bet is to carry on as if no one cares, and post whatever you want regardless.

Thanks skunk. I don't mind talking to myself. It's "normal". :D

[skunk]

And remember not everyone reads every thread, so its possible you bumped this gem to the top of recent posts and someone else will say they loved it.

[anarch]

Indeed I wrote a nice thread about lobbyists and only skunk and you noticed.... THanks yall.

Now, I'm just in total shock. You're telling me that everyone does not read every single thread. Thanks for bursting my fantasy bubble Friend.

[Raptor Jesus]

evolution.

Agree

[Hazelnut]

I am grateful because I feel good.

When I feel good, I smile.

When I smile, I am happy.

When I'm happy, I want to do more.

When I do more, I feel worthwhile.

When I feel worthwhile, I'm content.

When I'm content, I feel good.

[theeindiee]

I'm grateful for Jesus Christ. Thank you. Thank Krishna for Christ. Amen. Praise God. All the angels are singing, "Hallelujah, my Lord! Hallelujah!"

I also am praying for everyone's death. I hope you all die. I don't need to hope. You will. None of this stuff will matter then. Everything you've worked so hard for, all the causes you felt so strongly about, all the things in your life.... Gone.

Hahahahahahahahahaha, enjoy.

[boycotteverything]

ah the futility of it all. i hear ya, bro.

[boycotteverything]

I am grateful to be alive at such an interesting time in human history and evolution.was there a chance it might not be so? the final act requires an audience, no?

[boycotteverything]

[Paroxysm]

I am grateful for atists with passion, who make you really think.



Nice Avi. Skunk

I am a big fan of Alex Grey, and have seen most of his work. I recently introduced MissA to his work, and in turn she drummed up a painting which I had never seen, so I feel like passing on and sharing, whether you have seen or not:

Alex Grey is awesome, I have been meaning to visit his studio in NY (http://www.cosm.org/) sometime.

Beautiful painting.

[boycotteverything]

I love Alex's work too. Mostly for his view of Barack.

Artist Alex Grey’s vision of the Dalai Lama as the incarnation of Avalokiteshvara, shown in his eleven-faced, thousand-armed form, at home before Lhasa’s Potala Palace. He stands under a sky filled with mantras, with rainbow rays of light for world peace emanating from his heart in the future Tibet, finally released by an enlightened Chinese leadership.

Alex Grey is good. My favorite painting is Bardo Being, and the really "abstract" ones like the Holy Guardian Angel and the Oversoul and shit.... the ones that make you go "Ohhhhhhhhhhh yeahhhhhh... I remember now."
