Roses blooming outside my window today

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living.  We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon – instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our window today.              Dale Carnegie

I know that this can be very true for me.  So, my list of 1000 gifts continues today as examples of some of the roses blooming outside my window.

 124) laughing with friends

125) crackers and cheese

126) the life-giving smell of a warmish spring night
