eighty-two

looking forward to this weekend...
a short and sweet trip 
to see some amazing people
in a beautiful city called new york

eighty-one

time sweeps away
the pieces of our broken bridge
and in the quiet places
i remember 
and hope
that somewhere
you are smiling

the song my heart is singing right now

seventy-nine

there are buds in the trees
and
sweetness in the air
i am hopeful
and thankful
and full of daydreams
these days
soaking up the first 
small gifts
of spring

seeing simply what is right before us...
a difficult thing to sustain,
but so, so important.
these yellow tulips were my lovely reminder
during this challenging week
that we can choose where to focus.
our eyes
our energy
our hearts.
my patience, honesty, and ego were seriously tested in the past few days.
 many anxious evenings.
but i feel like i have come through.
perhaps even with some flying colors.
for i''ve been learning (the hard way) that
if we stay present 
and
see what is before us
and
take action only with the
clearest, most honest intention,
we have done our best.
the pains will pass.
good things will shine bright.
