| Thinking about Cape May....the stones, the sea...here with a feather that fell at my feet, a shell, some sage sprinkled with sweet grass! |
My experience in life has taught me to keep my heart and eyes open. You never know where a connection can be and sometimes it's where you least expect it. Today I connected with a grammar school classmate. It took me back to her Grandmother's kitchen and the warm and friendly hugs of her family. The smell in the house was intoxicating and my taste buds were always screaming "thank you," as I walked out the door.
At the end of the conversation, I was smiling, happy, hopeful and inspired. Isn't it odd that it is so much easier to focus on the dark side of life? How easy it is to place NO value on simple day to day living and appreciate that which you cannot see or hold. Amazingly though... that lovely intangible can reside somewhere in your heart, lifting the corners of your mouth into a grateful smile, reminding you what truly is important.
Thanks for the memories Sue!
