[Hermit of the Forest]

For a memorable and helpful era. Thank you all.

For the opportunity to experience life and learn from others.

I'm thankful there's one little firefly outside my window. I didn't know there were any here and hope deeply there will be more.

That I can afford to live on my own, for opportunities, for the people who are willing to provide me support (even though I don't let them do so fully), for something new

Eggplant parm.

I was going to say it seems odd for someone to have strong feelings involving eggplant, but then I remembered that this exists: https://www.loomischamber.com/eggplant-festival-is-back/

I don't know if I would claim to have strong feelings, but I do enjoy eggplant in all its forms: parmagiana, grilled, stuffed, stir-fried, simmered with other veggies, tomatoes, and sausage, etc.

I’m not really an eggplant fan, eggplant parm does indeed evoke feelings of gratitude. So warm, so cozy, so delicious.

 

[Hermit of the Forest]

For one of my best friends.

 

[Cellmold]

I'm grateful for the fact I've had the support I've had and the fact I am not living in the worst conditions of history. I'm grateful for those who encouraged me and grateful for those who challenged me.

Overall, I'm extremely lucky and I am working towards paying back that due and giving back out what I have been given.

Balance, truth, and respect over grandiose pretensions about one's own infallibility.
