12/31 The bright moon beaming. The Caribbean stars singing. A live band feeding, energetic dancing, & horns bleating...our eyes meeting. Our hearts beating. Our chests heaving. Perspirations beading. The champagne finale w/fireworks leading....into a new year we’re desperately needing.
So meaningful in its simplicity, Clint. It makes me want to take a walk into my own daily adventures with gratitude, even on the toughest of days. In fact, I’ve been thinking about looking into a ghost writer to write my very colorful life’s story. Thank you for this!
Yes, I started the idea on Twitter is a long thread. But then decided I wanted it as a regular document so duplicated to a long Substack document. I don't restack to a note every time but a few times a week. This way, at the end of the year, I can just copy the long substack document into somewhere else or just go to it and read through if I want. I found a Twitter thread isn't the best for reading back over them.
What an interesting use of Substack - 'Gratitude in public'
lol. I like that! I'm not "Building in Public" I'm "Gratituding in Public"
I took some time off from “responsibility” and am reading and spending time outdoors - came upon this journal. Glad I did.

So do you edit it every day and then post the new text in a note? I love the gratitude list. It’s like a diary.

Well done, Clint. I love this so much, and may have to start my own!!
Thank you for sharing! What a lovely post!
