Over the last few days I have done a bit of sitting. Just idle time, while waiting for something or someone or just because I have nothing to do. It’s odd for me to be still. I feel like I have to move deep in my bones yet I’m being forced to be still. The… Continue reading Sitting and Waiting

Just a good day or something more?
You question what it is. Is it a really good day? The art of coming out of the dark? The fact that I’m starting to feel better? Getting joy out of existence.

One Day at a Time
It’s been heavy on my mind (and heart) the idea of “one day at a time”. In so many aspects of our world, things happen one day at a time.
