As the leading man of our team turns 49 today, we asked him to share the top 5 things he's grateful for...

1. I have a job I love that keeps me engaged and creative.

2. I go home to a wonderful woman who loves me.

3. I have a delightful child who is caring and wants to help make this a better world.

4. Max (lab) has stopped peeing on the Nguni rug and I am very grateful for that.

5. My castle is a stones throw from the Indian Ocean and it is beauty to behold as I wake up and again when I lay my head down.

He also found it fitting to add 5 more things he's grateful because you can never be done with the list of things you're grateful for... 

6. I’m grateful my community lives with shared values of Ubuntu. We all look out for each other’s safety and needs.

7. I am fit and healthy and enjoy the longest summers filled with outdoor adventures; golf, tennis, picnics, and paddle skis.

8. When it rains, I don’t flood. When the heat is unrelenting, I escape to conditioned comfort.

9. Gemma my Jack Russel is fierce and my lawn is free of moles and my kitchen free of monkeys.

10. I’m grateful that I’m almost 10 years sober and didn’t screw up all the things that I am now grateful for.

Happy Darren Day!
