Love the photo!
Gratitude is a wonderful emotion. It makes me examine the reason for feeling the emotion itself, and causes a ripple effect toward the person or situation responsible for creating the emotion in the first place.
Happy vacation!

Thank you, Sheila. You are so right .. I cannot feel gratitude without it having a ripple effect … well put!
