Courage

So it's been a while since I posted a gratitude list, so here we go:

Things I'm grateful for:

1. Rainbows
2. The way California smells
3. People you meet and who light up your life for a brief moment, who become your five hour friends, never to see you again.
4. Occupy Wall Street
5. Shooting stars and the Milky Way
6. Being able to hear birds and wind instead of traffic and helicopters
7. This poem by Josh Healey: When Hope Comes Back
8. Muddy feet late night adventures
9. Courage
10. Perspective
11. Campus protesters at Berkeley and Davis, and people present documenting what happened to them. My heart breaks when I see it, and I'm inspired by their courage to remain non-violent against such brutality.
