1000 Gifts, Vol. 2, #56

551. a meeting I had been dreading (and wasted worry on), turning into a most pleasant time ~ with hot tea, chocolate, and jazz music, too!
552. learning a new back road ...
553. ...through rice fields and bamboo forests
554. friends' engagement ceremony
555. time alone when I desperately need it
556. learning new vocabulary along with a little Japanese boy during this morning's sermon
557. the warmth of stepping onto a heated train after waiting 15 minutes on a bitterly cold platform
558. getting to read aloud a chapter in an "American Girls" book ~ to an eager audience (of 1)
559. a bright, sunny morning on my day off
560. the accomplishment of having Christmas finally packed away
