Practicing Gratitude: Gifts 601-625

I've been struggling with gratitude lately. Things have been a little grey. Not black, not miserable, just grey. But I believe that is the most important time to look around and see the good around you. It helps brighten everything up, at least a little. It helps to remember that even when things are going wrong, so much is going right. So I've been trying.
Finally, I've come up with 25 things. Today was a particularly good day, so it's easy to put it down on paper today.
