Precious moments

There would always be time for reflection, though sometimes it seems that we are always hurrying to get things done, to get from one thing to another.
When I had my car parked out in the driveway and I would get into it in the morning as I head out to work, no matter how rushed I may feel, I knew that I can take a few moments to pause and glance around me, look up and see the beauty around me. One morning, it could be the way the sunlight filters through the clouds, the beautiful silhouette of the naked branches against the morning light or I may even close my eyes for a second, feel the cool breeze as I breathe in and hear the bird songs all around me.
During those precious moments, I able to hear and believe, all is well around me.
If so, then, ALL IS WELL. Period.

Eager for More

What a treat it is to wake up in the morning, find another beautiful day ready for us to enjoy! What a wealth of possibilities there are for this day!
A chance to see things in a new light...
Enjoy more smiles from our Mary...
Enjoy more hugs!
Enjoy just breathing this life force flowing through me -what a treat!

There are new things to learn, there are things to learn anew...
There are new moments to reconnect with the people, things, places we love...
There are new thoughts to think of yet newer things to enjoy!

This is the time, Dad. I am eager for more, are you?

Just some notes

To say how much I love you.
I learned so much about life from you.
"Que sera, sera" you would always quote from that song. And it is how you lived your life--- going with the flow.
I learned that from you. Though, I took it a little step further and I "expect for the best."
It is what I hope you do, too, for the rest of your days, Dad.
Expect for the BEST!
