[stylist] The Heaven of Simple Things

[William L Houts]

HI Sam,

Yes, like you I really think that a stance of gratitude for what we 
have, for all the things we love, helps us to deal successfully with all 
the stuff which isn't quite optimum in our lives.  Not in some 
saccharine, Mary Sunshine way, but as a twin to our grief and sadness 
when stuff doesn't turn out the way we'd like it to. Anyway, I'm glad 
that you and so many others have grooved on this post.
