Hasn't it been a gray stretch? Perhaps that is why this poem is so appealing to me. So joyous to start with the word "Sun" ----- makes you smile just saying it. Love of nature and the interrelationships within nature, as well as the love of being absolutely content with where you are right now. Whether that is loving being in the company of yourself, your friend, a family member or your soulmate (a term coined by Plato.... but that's another rabbithole to hop down).
FOR KEEPS by Joy Harjo
'Sun makes the day new.
Tiny green plants emerge from the earth.
Birds are singing the sky into place.
There is nowhere else I want to be but here.
Another situation where 'there is nowhere else I want to be but here' may be when you are receiving a chocolate facial from Wendy. Belgian chocolate from Divine Treasures, organic yogurt, and local honey mixed together to create a luxurious (and delicious) mask.
Happy Leap Year and may the sun come to make our days new,
Wendy and Deby

“…take a deep breath”. I came across an interesting variation to that suggestion in a publication called Bottom Line. The following is an excerpt from the Editor’s note, June 15th, 2021: Anxiety Crushers by Marjory Abrams.
Try Finger Breathing. Read how to do it here.
