Dialogue on Gratitude: Doris Lessing speaks...

“All sanity depends on this: 

that it should be a delight to feel the roughness of a carpet under smooth soles, 

a delight to feel heat strike the skin, 

a delight to stand upright, 

knowing the bones are moving easily under the flesh.”
Doris Lessing, The Golden Notebook
