Mmmm, wealth and privilege
I wandered around Stanford's campus yesterday just basking in the wealth and privilege I have. I mean, it's not fair that there are haves and have-nots, but it seems almost sacreligious not to appreciate how lucky I am to be a "have".
There are fountains everywhere around here. If you park in the parking lot, your permit can expire and you may not get a ticket (not so, at the State universities!) Everyone looks healthy, and nothing is crowded. All the buildings have shady courtyards with benches and trees. The sun is shining. I am taking a year-long break from the workforce to focus on my education.
I am very very very lucky to be living my life. Just taking a moment and stopping to count my blessings, and they are legion.
