  1. I sat in on a talk about gratitude. A lady said when she was a child they were very poor. She said she had only a small thin blanket and was cold. When she grew up she had a warm thick blanket and kept warm. She said this is gratitude.

What happens here on Red's Wrap is all over the map. There is no single theme, no overarching gripe, no malady of my own or others that dominates. I write about what seems important or interesting at the moment and what aims me toward hope. I write stories, essays, poems - whatever fits the day and the mood. Nothing stays the same, here or anywhere. That's a good thing. Happiness. It's relative.
