Thanks Freddie. It’s always great to connect with someone. I think we all rush around and sometimes miss a whole lot. At least this week, I’m going out every day and smelling my little bunch of lilacs and saying “Thank you.”

I have recently been made keenly aware of how frequently I rush through the “mundane everyday things” of life and don’t take the time to enjoy them. My morning coffee is part of my routine that sets up the day, I realized that I had stopped taking my five to ten minutes to sit and enjoy the cup and mentally prepare for my day. Instead I pour it and begin the day, cup in hand. This morning I took five minutes to sit and enjoy it and even though it seems nothing has gone the way it was supposed to today I have more peace and acceptance of it because I took a few minutes for myself and enjoyed something deceptively simple.

Thanks for putting the “Dee Dah” back in my day! You helped me see the pretty NEW rose buds in my garden instead of all the dead ones that needed clipping. Now I have a pretty bouquet to look at and the old ragtag roses have been trimmed to encourage new growth. Now I can enjoy the view out the window without grousing over one-more-chore that needs doing. Amazing what a re-frame can do!
