this morning

hey dearest LOvers of life.  peekin' in on you/
i wish to whisper a gentle message that can keep you
cool through the remainder of this sweet summer.
my morning ritual ::
when i open my eyes
before my bano visit,
before the oatmeal in a wine glass breakfast,
before i qualify how i feel by the hours of sleep i need/got/ or didn't get
[i nap 5 days a week/ 20 minutes a shot--
no matter how much sleep i get at night!]
when i open my eyes
and
take my breath
i say
thank you
thank you
thank you



try this top of the day ritual,
if you would
accept your day 
in the light of gratitude
thanks creates 
LOve
LOve 
creates joy
what else is there?

So nice to see you back. I've been trying to have a gratitude exercise every day, sometimes before I even get out of bed. I list specifically the things I'm grateful for and it's amazing, the sweet place it leaves me.

Beautiful, Michelle. Truly inspirational. I am going through the LOve-fest once again, gathering inspiration and good vibes. Thank you again for divining it. :-)
