Any of the many blessings, bounties, talents, skills, intuitions, guidance, abilities, understandings, strengths, opportunities, or relationships we have been given would have been enough to make us happy, but look . . . LOOK what He’s given us. I am looking, and I am grateful.

The Dayenu song is supposed to bring to mind specific blessings – specific things to be grateful for. It doesn’t pretend everything is rosy all the time and that there is no heartache in the world; it’s more about seeing past that to what’s important in life. Look past the crap and focus on the good stuff. The great stuff!

I have spent ^{(well, more than 40)} years in this desert, so to me Dayenu becomes a gratitude journal, but with a cool name. :)
