Just in case you were wondering, I am not writing today about raindrops on roses nor about cream colored ponies or crisp apple streusels. I did see a cute kitten this morning during my early run, but didn't notice if it had whiskers. Today I do want to take this big giant cyber package and tie it with string, at least for a moment. I want to talk just a tiny bit more about a few of my favorite things.
Over the years I have written here about some amazing people and organizations. Many of them are among my favorite things. AIDS Walk San Francisco is a favorite. The many blood drives I have coordinated are certainly favorites. San Francisco Night Ministry is also a favorite.
People who volunteer at hospital and at other organization are favorites of mine. Someone said that as a volunteer, they actually bring more home from their shifts than they bring in. It is very satisfying to know that you have been a help to someone else.
Long phone conversations with Mom were among my favorite things. I miss them. So many wonderful people I treasure among my favorite things.
There are days that are less inspiring than others and some that are filled with so much bad news in the paper and on television that it might easily depress you. Just like Julie Andrews though, I simply remember my favorite things, and well you know the rest!
