Peaks and Valleys, people...it is all peaks and valleys. It is very hard to believe we are in mid-October! I love the Autumn season. Apparently, the Autumn season is not loving me this year...monster allergies including mysterious rash and hives. So I am on prednisone, which is a nasty little steroid that makes you have road rage and such. Case in point, some not paying attention driver pulled out in front of me and then drove incredibly slowly (thank goodness I was paying close attention) less than a block later, they took forever turning into the gas station...I was so very close to pulling in and giving them a piece of my mind. I had to remind myself that this was not my nature and it was the drugs talking. It was all I could do to get to the office without a meltdown. The day has been full of annoying phone calls, computer glitches. You know, the kind of things which do not bother you on most days. The office is quiet now and I am taking a breather to calm and center myself. I despise medication of any sort and this one makes me sad, mad and uncomfortable in my own skin. Only a few more days and things can get back to whatever normal is for me.
When I am feeling particularly peevish I know it is time to stop, collaborate and listen (just kidding, but not)
Actually, it is a good time to center, breathe and give gratitude to our Source, our Universe, our Heavenly Father for the many, many blessings we each have to behold. So what I am loving today...
The skies are the bluest blue with a slight breeze...the chill in the air...popcorn and pumpkins...the changing leaves dancing on the air and landing in fluffy piles around the yard...the colors...socks and sweaters...onion soup with grilled cheese...any soup or stew on the stove top for the cooling weather...yoga and Nia...apples and homemade applesauce...anticipating a visit from the granddarlings...dreaming and planning...resting, a little turning inward for the cooler months...knitting...reading...pondering...out of season beach days...herbal teas...friends and laughter...people in love...halloween decorations...kindness....my little monk statue by the front door, he stands vigil encouraging each to come in peace and relax...home
I feel better already! How about you, what pleases you most today? Peace and Love Y'all!
