Day 2 of Grateful

#1 Being able to watch the Universe unfold. Most of the day I sat at the dining room table writing only to be distracted by the same bird landing on on the porch railing and picking at the dirt in basil plant that sat on the railing. The plant was on it’s last leg when I put it outside a few weeks ago, but since then it’s grown green and strong and to watch the same bird pounce around and sit next to it was quite mesmerizing.

#2 Connection to the Universe. I believe in a spiritual connection to the Universe. For moments that I doubt a connection could exist, I am reminded by a Universal gift or answer to a question I’m seeking. Sometimes it’s a song, a scent, a fleeting glimpse of something out of the corner of my eye. Today I had one of those moments that just brought me to my knees in tears. A simple question. A simple gift.

#3 Naps. God bless naps. They restore, they reset, and sometimes they are just what one needs.
