Appreciation

Walking in the misty rain at feeding time.

Soft, gentle horse nickers.

A section of hay tossed over the fence,

a strong breeze blowing it back onto us.

Natures hay fight.

  Brushing. Shaking. Moving. Laughing.

Visiting a friend for coffee, which merged into 

a joined errand run.

Zippy country music playing over the loud speaker,

and a young man dancing happily in the isles

as he stacks the store shelves.

Random checks of good and not-so-good items on the Bobby App.

Giggling at our choices.

Making memories in the tasks of an ordinary day.

Heading out after my Tai Chi class.

"You looked very graceful out there!"

came from the sideline.

Not what my head was whispering at the moment.

She peddles her bike, and shares

a story of Tai Chi, & a trip to China when

she was younger.

"I was so young, 

that everyone looked old."

We laugh.

I thank her for her cheer.

My kiddo comes to visit.

He's smitten by a rock-bird I have on the window-sill

beside my flowers.

It makes him smile.

He sticks around for dinner,

 and we sit around the table chatting about our day.

    He left soon afterwards...

rock-bird left with him.

Journal notes:

Trust that the perfect needed connections 

always arrive at the right time & way.

There is a place that you are to fill 

that no one else can.

Something you are to do ,

which no one else can.

See your good.

Find the goodness in front of you.

Always remember you are free to be yourself 

and live your own life in serenity and joy.

be well...

"Prioritize what matters most.

Decide how you want to spend your life-

every moment.

Kiss your children,

love your friends,

speak kindly to strangers,

hold hands with your loved ones,

and go for walks.

These will be the things you remember

when all you have left is today."

"One of the healthiest habits to learn:

Being grateful for the little things."
