Gratitude du jour

I am grateful for my ability to speak Spanish. No, I don't speak French, though I have found that if I watch a French movie (with subtitles) I can follow the dialog and recall many words from my three years of attempting to learn the language! I never learned Italian, yet I can understand a lot of the words because of my knowledge of Latin and two other Romance languages (Spanish and French, of course).

By the way, just in case you wanted to know, the word "Romance" in this case has nothing to do with the languages being "romantic." It is referring to "Roman" languages, that is, those with a Latin base. I'm grateful for that tidbit of information. I love languages!

I love being silly and creative with language, which is why I enjoy Joss Whedon's shows so much, but that's another story for another time.

What are you grateful for today? Keep focusing on your blessings! Michelle
