The 16th thing Iearned again in 2024 -- the world is filled with wonder

Whether it's walking into the art supply store near the hotel we like
in Paris, and having Jean Philippe invite us for apertifs and to meet
his wife, or meeting a wonderful woman who works in crisis 
management and her beautiful daughter at the ice cream store today, where
I parked because there was no parking and I had to pick up printing
nearby, or talking to a beautiful and amazing client over cookies 
today -- my world is filled with wonder.

And as I said many times before this doesn't mean that I don't acknowledge
that there is so much pain and suffering in the world, or that there are
worried in my life.  It means that being an artist means I am lucky to 
marvel at the world.  

Have a loving your life day.
