The Digit-al Dozen Does Thankfulness: Day 1 Books and Music

Nothing to Disclose



Happy Monday! The Digit-al Dozen is back this week for an entire week of Thankfulness Manicures!

I debated about this theme. How do you convey on your nails for what and how much you are thankful? In my case, I'm not sure I really could. I'm generally a glass half full sort of person. Almost to the point of "Pollyanna" sometimes. And I really wouldn't have it any other way. Negativity is pointless. But I can also be a realist. No rose-colored glasses here, thanks. But overall? Life is good and I am blessed.

Because I'm pretty sure I couldn't convey the larger concepts, I decided to pick a few larger concepts and a few of "the little things" that make me happy every day.

Today? Books and Music.






I really don't know what I would do if I couldn't get lost in a book whenever I wanted. Since childhood, I could be found up a tree - reading a book. Or in the closet with a flashlight - reading a book.  And I if I can't get lost in a book, there's always music playing. I can't seem to function in silence. Maybe this post I wrote a few years ago will convey how deeply I'm affected by music: Music Stirs My Soul. It reaches in, deep in my soul, and latches on. Twisting and manipulating until tears flow - from happiness, from sadness, from appreciation of the talent it takes to make beautiful music. It makes me think and feel and BE.

So that's my Day One! Be sure and check out all the other Digital Dozen Thankfulness manis for today in the links below.
