Gratitude...FCs

Today is the first Wednesday of my third year as Gratitude Girl. I would like to dedicate this gratitude-girl year to fictional characters (FCs). That's right! I will express gratitude for the FCs (fictional characters) I've come across.

#WritingCommunity

Dear Writing Community: You've been on my mind... I joined you in March 2019, and since then my life has been an adventure.  You writers have motivated me, on a daily basis, to get back to my work(s) in progress, in sickness and in health. Because of you, I have written numerous blog posts and book reviews, published my first memoir, ghostwritten two books, edited over a dozen others, enjoyed reading your recommendations, and learned many lessons. You have taught me so much! I've learned about writing, reading, construction, technology, and life. Thank you! I appreciate each one of you. I'm grateful to have you in my life. Love... Noosha Ravaghi

Dear Dariush: You've been on my mind... You've been singing since the year I was born and I've listened to your voice since I was a child. I love your voice, your music, your lyrics, each heartwarming on its own and, when combined, extraordinarily beautiful. I had the honor and pleasure of meeting you in person in Paris about fifteen years ago. You were sitting in a café with a young man, talking about work, and I was passing by with two friends who asked for your autograph. I wanted it, too, probably more than them, but I was embarrassed because my friends had interrupted your conversation, so I stood a few feet away and watched as you kindly signed their names. Thank you for being a wonderful human being. You have touched millions of lives with your passion to make this world a better place. Thank you for being a messenger of compassion. I appreciate everything you do, from your music to your tree-planting campaign to your Education, Awareness & Prevention organizatio...

Chris de Burgh

Dear Chris: You've been on my mind... I've listened to your beautiful songs all my life. I used your "Lady in Red" and "Spanish Train" to practice my own integrated language skills - listening & writing - when I was a teenager living in Iran, more than three decades ago. Then, as an English instructor in the United States, I used many of your songs in my classes, to teach my students the same skills. Thank you for your music, which I had the pleasure of hearing in person at the concerts you had in both Orange County and Los Angeles County, in California, in October 2015. I was thrilled to see you in person. Thank you for your Music in Lockdown Tutorials, the videos you posted online during the pandemic.  Thank you for your powerful lyrics... At this moment in time, these words come to mind:          But these are only boys, and I will never know,          How men can see the wisdom in a war... Thank you for being you. I'm so gra...
