A beautiful fall Saturday afternoon in Pennsylvania. A slight chill in the air and some clouds and sun. I spent at least 1.5 hours walking Kitty outside because it was such a beautiful day. Inside though, the cats were bored and decided to have a little cat play in front of me. This was initiated by Chocolate by Lucky quickly followed suit and joined in. 
It's fun to watch these two go at it in play. Even though Lucky does not have front claws and is at a disadvantage in these battles, Chocolate never pulls out his claws in defense. There is more neck biting than anything else.
Hard to believe that another year is ending. The days just seem to fly by anymore and I don't know if I am enjoying each day enough. It just seems that I fail to just stop and be thankful for all that I have. I am thankful for everything, but I don't stop to think about it enough. Some days when I am out walking in the quiet morning, I watch the sunrise and think about how lucky I am that I am able to be out in the peaceful morning experiencing such beauty. Then I go in the house and have to do all of the daily things and I forget about the beauty of the morning.
I'm sure that most people go through these exact same thoughts and then others never ever stop and take time to experience the beauty around them. I guess I should be thankful for those rare moments that I do stop to enjoy all that I have and not lament those things that I don't have.
"Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered, and that my life is fleeing away." Psalm 39:4
