I woke up feeling so good this morning I almost didn’t know what to do. So I did what I do every morning, but it was so much more fun today.
I made myself a good cup of coffee. I sat in the silence and watched the clouds rise up off the mountains, allowing gratitude to pour out of me and into the light around me. I read my email and wallowed in the loving thoughts of my very oldest and best friends for a while.
Later I went and read another friend’s blog and laughed out loud as only he can make me do. His shenanigans are the sort that always touch me in just the right places and it feels so good to know there are kindred spirits out there.
I got some work done and even helped my sister solve a problem on her computer. (The fact that I am anyone’s computer guru always astounds me…….and pleases me too!) It was a great day.
Conscious living can be a struggle, but on a day like today it was so easy. I swear, not one smile was left unnoticed, not one loving feeling lost in mindless muttering. I am flooded with the joy of my blessings and the way they never desert me. It reminds me of how important it is to continue noticing them on less perfect days.
Breathing in I calm my body
Breathing out I smile
Dwelling in the present moment
I know this is a wonderful moment.
