Glad to sit with a few basics this morning. The simplicity of Garden Mums. The joy of recently picked Daffodils. The centering of a candle.
Flowers and folks both bring joy. Those folks — that’s my Mom and Dave — stayed with Dana and me over the last five days. Myrna, my Mom is 81. Pretty spry. Dave, my Stepdad is 76. Also spry. They’re both playful. Kind. Centering. What a treat to welcome them. What a treat to weave our lives together.
Some days — it’s flower and folks like these that guide. That add perspective and beauty to the inherent rushing intensity that is Monday work that needs attention.
