observations of the day

The day may find you..
before you have awakened.

It may wake you softly with sunshine
or loudly with rain.

It will watch as you open your eyes and stretch out your body.
It will welcome you with joy and hope.
each day holds your promises and your potential.

it is a gift slowly being unwrapped.

It may challenge us or leave us feeling bored
we may end the day excited to begin the next or tired and weary.

each day the sun will rise and the sun will set.

we will inhale and exhale

chew and swallow

stand and sit

let us do these things well, with as much attention as we can

for if all of the days simply float by while we are waiting for something else to happen we just might miss the good, simple parts of being human.

take a moment to look around and find something you are in awe of.

yourself is a good place to start.

  1. just beautiful. perfect timing--a new moon in cancer for the second time, perfect solar eclipse, balance of dark and light, day and night, masculine and feminine...a powerful day.
