Mindful

It’s 8:00. I turn off the TV,  I turn on the light. The house creaks, The keyboard clicks The dog whines and shifts. I breathe. Turquoise shoelaces. White threads in…

    I saw this today on Pinterest.  Sometimes it seems that when things are at their darkest, somehow something I need to hear falls in my lap.  At least that would be a nice thing to believe about the universe, wouldn’t it?

    This poem is by Shel Silverstein.  I need to hear this today.  I need to believe this today.  I think Sir and sub brother can use this, too, so I am going to work on believing it for them, as well.

    So… for my few loyal followers who I know (one of you at least) would like a little more in the details department (I’m shy!  Seriously!  Why is everyone laughing??) a little tidbit.
