When something reminds you of the things you should be grateful for it gives you pause for thought and a little bit of a boost.<\/p>\n<p>We live in a beautiful part of the country and the view from almost every window in our house is of farmland. The semi-rural setting and the fact that we live almost at the top of the valley side means we never tire of looking at our surroundings. I get home from work every night and give myself a moment to look across the valley and enjoy the moorland with its patchwork of fields ascending the hillsides until they become unbroken acres of heather on the hilltops.<\/p>\n<p>Beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>I was reminded of something else today. When Suze and I get home from work it&#8217;s like we&#8217;ve been apart for a week, not a working day. It feels so good to be back together. Boring as it might sound I always tell her that I love her and kiss her, just once, as soon as we&#8217;re together.<\/p>\n<p>After doing various chores yesterday evening I needed to look up some images for a project we&#8217;re working on and found myself staring at some shots of Suze&#8217;s face. It&#8217;s a face that I wake up to every morning and the one that I see before I go to sleep at night. What struck me is that the images are incredibly appealing. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s just me, I have to say that because I&#8217;m head-over-heals in love with the woman and therefore biased. There&#8217;s a vivacity in her eyes and a playfulness in her smile that beguiles you.<\/p>\n<p>I found it difficult to get on with the job at hand because I was enjoying the images so much.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s how lucky I am.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes you need reminding how lucky you are and today I was reminded.
