It does seem that an occasional day of feeling balanced and at peace with life is nothing to remark on, but I guess it is for me. Or has been for quite a while - but who knows what tomorrow will bring? Meanwhile, art is more fun than words, so I will conclude by posting photos of some of the things I'm grateful for these days.

I have noticed when I go through a series of "good" days, I naturally cycle down, but now I no longer try to pin in on a cause and thus amplify it.(my old way)
ReplyDeleteJust accept and try not to wallow in it finding more reasons to be down. Or then set myself up for wanting it better, or in total question what next will pop up. Setting up duality(comparing apples to oranges, when each day presents itself in new miracles) in life so one forgets to enjoy what is. If one may have trouble just reflect on your death right now and how you forgot to live in the present today when it was good. Now, I know all this might not always apply in your particular case, but worth a try for others. It was great to see the sun shots and good things that so naturally appear that we forget about. I can picture your cat rubbing against the sun drenched flowers, almost knocking them over.
It's worse than that - she tries to eat them, and mums are one of many plants that are toxic to cats. I have to keep the door to this room closed when I'm not in it to keep an eye on her.
