Today I'm grateful for the wonderful weekend I spent with my niece Talina, for the chance to reconnect and spend healing time together.

I'm grateful for the kindness of people all along the way. I was pleasantly surprised at finding courtesy and kindness everywhere we went in such a large city setting.
