    Thanks to all for supporting my recovery; it takes a village! Isn’t it amazing how words, insights, and good wishes from people we have not met personally influence our well being? I know it to be true, and love being reminded. Enjoy this amazing day.

    A lot of work, I think.
    May Grace sweeten the fatigue of these hot summer days, for all working people.

    Today I had the opportunity to attend a wonderful Mass at my church. I always feel much at peace there and sometimes like today find myself
    holding back tears because it is exactly what I needed to hear. So grateful for being a member of this parish for so many years. Today was a rainy day so I had an opportunity to just do errands and relax.

    The opportunity to appreciate the morning’s delights: Fresh, cool morning air. The cat’s little chirps of excitement as he spots a hummingbird at the feeder. Hot coffee. Time with my sweetheart. Poetry that stirs my heart, from the collection Poetry of Presence II.
    The opportunity to restart my morning yoga practice.
    The opportunity to anticipate, and then to enjoy, the leftovers from yesterday’s brunch date that are waiting for me (which is why I’m tempted to skip yoga yet again! But they will still be there).

    This moment is offering the same
    opportunity as every moment.
    To be present, to have gratitude, to
    express myself, and to be of service.

    Good morning to all! This morning is offering me an opportunity to just be and enjoy the plannings of a one year old birthday celebration of my one and only granddaughter. To rest my mind in her divine presence is what I will stay focus on. My tendency to always worry and be on the alert for a crisis is something I have to work on every single day. I am learning because of all of you and this site. I thank you!

    I had a nice breakfast with my husband and two cats and my great dog, Clancy! Now I am in hectic mood…we are going to our cabin – which I have not been to since last October.. It is only an hour and a half from our home- but we do not get there often. I have packing up of food, animals, clothes, etc–so now being my usual spastic self! But what joy to come to this site and gain some peace, and kindness and love from all who come to this site. That makes this moment and this time very special…and I am so very grateful. Thank you.

    After a busy night of on-call duties and catching up on sleep through the early AM, I have the opportunity to pause, look at all I am grateful for, and see the day’s opportunities to further build.

    This moment is offering peace and relaxation. We cancelled our brunch service today due to someone renting our restaurant out for a private party this afternoon, so I got to sleep in and am enjoying sitting here with my coffee before deciding what to do with the dogs this morning. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

    It is offering me alone time with my “site” friends. I am gleaning peace and inspiration from fellow pilgrimage folks. It offers me a time to set aside my life and gain insight into other’s life.

    solitude and gratefulness.
    Rabbit – today is National Guinea Pig Appreciate Day – if I’m remembering correctly, you had guinea pigs. We did too, my daughter had ‘Lizzy’ for 5 yrs, cute adorable pets.
