GRATITUDE




 


I wonder if we have expressed enough gratitude for all the amazing things people do for us every day. 

We turn on a tap: out pops clean water; or press a switch and we can see, or heat our food, without thinking that there might be someone to thank for that effort and amazing service. They are the unseen people who keep our lives moving in so many invisible ways. We should certainly thank them, and I do. Thank you.

This year has been horrendous, with international wars and natural disasters appearing haphazardly all around the world, causing the loss of many, many lives, and the destruction of homes, animals, crops, and water supplies. 

There is gratitude, too, as survivors thank God, the rescue services, medical workers and the strangers who help tirelessly as well. Sadly, they will be relying upon gratitude for quite some time to come; we have to remember them: Australia, Canada, China, Greece, Libya, Morocco, Pakistan, Turkey, and Ukraine.


Today, I would like to extend our thank yous to everyone who presses a like button, makes a comment, or shares our work. Thank you; without you, we would not be advancing the way we are. Thank you again from all of us. 

Our WobblingPen Blogspot has tipped over the 20,000 mark, heading rapidly to 21,000, our next milestone is now almost in sight. 

Thank you for the beautiful pictures and stories you share with us, and the conversation some of you have with us regularly. We hope we help bring life, the wide open spaces, plus amusement, to loneliness, even if it is only to break the cycle.

Another big thank you must go to our wonderful Wobblers and permanent workers who gather everything together to make up the fun and informative place called WobblingPen. 

You all have the ethos of WobblingPen in your hearts, and come up with new ideas, which we banter about, to accept, reject, or trial, and are achieved with much seriousness and hilarity. 

Without each one of you, there would be no WobblingPen, just a pen.


To all those who work and think of others, you have our gratitude.
