It's a day of sad news in places not far away. A bloody terrorist attack in London, devastation from the Oklahoma tornado, a little boy killed in a St Paul mudslide while looking for fossils. There are people I know well who are sick and stressed out and grieving.
Most of my posts are light and silly and maybe a little bit interesting, but I haven't lost sight of how completely lucky I am. Maybe a better word is blessed. I won't get into the specifics but I know I have a lot of the things you can see and the things you can't. I know that life will get difficult at some point, but now (despite my basic getting-around-in-a-foreign-country challenges) it is happily simple.
I am feeling grateful today, so thanks everybody, for making this blog a meaningful project for me.
