Gratitude on the go! 1-1-14

Today I am grateful for:
-this quote:
"The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely."
-having a leisurely morning
-the tradition of milk rice with my mom. We've been doing it for as long as I can remember and this year is no exception. It's a Sri Lankan tradition where you boil milk and depending on how it boils over will be how this new year will turn out. It's a bit like magic nbd. Then we take the boiling milk and make rice with it. It's incredibly tasty. Mom also taught me how to make luminaris, a spicy side, and I got to make the eggs. That never happens! We had a pretty good time. I had to take a few moments to breath, but nothing bad at all. I also set mom up with my netflix account and it seemed to totally make her day. We like some of the same shows. Huh. Go figure.
