Gratitude List for 3 Kamál

Today I am thankful...
          ...that the rent is paid for this month.

Jalál (Glory), 4 Kamál (Perfection) 175 B.E. - Saturday, August 4, 2018

August1

August a month of joyful memories
Urging me to pay again in cool pools,
Gust of hot summer winds
Urge my aging body to stay indoors and
Sip iced tea from tall cold glasses
Thoughts of my child hood return: Making me smile.

Gratitude List for 4 Kamál

Today I am thankful...
          ...for coffee and doughnuts for breakfast.
          ...that my Bank of America checking account is not overdrawn.
          ...that we have two working air conditioners in this apartment.
          ...for the pink back brush because now I can wash my back when I take a shower.
          ...for bottles of water to quench my thirst on these hot days.
          ...that I finished a poem today.
          ...that I have 27,600 points in my YouGov account.
          ...that I have 2,725,151 GPs in my Gift Points account.
          ...that I am receiving my meds through my health insurance mail order pharmacy.
