Appreciate
to a Frenchman
sounds like ‘après shit’
That moment of glory
right after the first coffee…
A feeling of lightness, clarity and understanding.
And so it is
with a linguistic twist
that I realized the importance
of appreciation…
I appreciate the cuts on my fingers
because I still have functioning hands
I appreciate the fights with my wife
because I live with the love of my life
I appreciate the spelling mistakes
because I received an education
To appreciate
is to increase the value
of the existing
It is slowing time
to take a moment
of realization
That life is always
a bit more beautiful
than we think we know
And when you appreciate
your own appreciation
you live in celebration
