today
Posted on August 5th, 2009 No comments
Today I watched an end of an era… on TV.
Today I wore my boots and a long sleeved blouse and jeans into a rainy day.
Today I loved a cute little doggie too much and scared him.
Today I got a sculpture of a full-bodied woman.
Today I pushed my body to its painful limits.
Today I remembered that my mom, at my age now, was already taking care of two daughters, while I’m living in the city taking care of myself.
Today I walked with the wind on my back and my hair on my ice cream cone.
Today I, with my sisters in faith, celebrated being a woman, wondered at stories and the Author of it all.
Today, I give thanks for this life. For this time in history.
Today, just like on any other day, I wonder if I’m meant to do big things, and if so– what are they and how am I going to do them?
Today, I will do the small things that I have to do and give thanks.
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.Psalm 90:12
