[ABikerSailor]

Grateful for the fact that I woke up on top of the grass, rather than under it.

Am also grateful that even though I'm 47 1/2, I can still ride a bicycle as many miles as I want or need to, that it's still in great shape, even though I've had it since '97.

But the thing I'm grateful for the most? A woman that I call Auntie Bull, who is my roommate and who is also the brightest blessing in my life that I've ever had. She teaches me things I don't know, is a great white board for ideas, and has a really dark sense of humor at times.

I'm also grateful for the fact that I am a son of HaShem, and what's even better, is I know and understand that.
