The
Coffee Phase
Really,
there’s nothing different about this morning than any other morning, well,
nothing but the most important thing. I’ve slowed down enough to recognize and
appreciate all that is in front of me.
I didn’t
wake up for work with 2 minutes to spare, and having to rush out the door in a
stupor to avoid being insanely late. Rather, I woke up, sipped my coffee,
stared at the beauty of the blooms blowing off of the trees, watched the
playfulness of the squirrels as they “fought” with the birds over the last
peanut.
In this
moment, as I sit here in my sun room, life is exactly as it’s meant to be. My
husband and I are best friends, and this old house of mine has so much
character, and charm. In this very moment, I’m exactly where I’ve always been
meant to be.
I welcome
this new “Coffee Phase”
I used to
be a PARTY ANIMAL, going out 5 out of 7 nights a week, not appreciating the
REAL beauty of life, but rather just existing from moment to moment, hanging on
to a thread of life entangled with cocktail after cocktail, bar after bar, and
one hopeful “date” after the other, just praying for some kind of solidity.
Praying and longing for something whole.
“I
welcome this new “coffee Phase” with OPEN ARMS!
I’m a
wife, who appreciates the luster of life, the peacefulness, the love, the
goodness of one’s soul, and all things as deep.
I’ve been
in the trenches, but finally, I’m right where I should be, in this old house of
mine, with the love of my life, and our lovely 2 fur children. I’m the luckiest
of lucky.
