Jumping in for the Micro Blog photoblog challenge for March.

March 10: Ritual

The morning coffee…

Currently reading: The World-Ending Fire by Wendell Berry 📚

As I continue to slowly work my way through this text, I am reminded that I live too fast. I don’t savor life and am rarely as present as I would like to be.

One last delightful warm and sunny morning before returning to the misery that is Michigan’s March.

#3goodthings for March 9, 2023

1. A cool morning

2. Gorgeous weather for baseball

3. A good walk

Sitting outside on a blissfully cool morning in central Florida, reading, meditating, and drinking coffee; I’m not sure that life gets much better.

I’m so grateful.

I am beginning to learn that to love well demands a letting go of ego as much as it is an embracing of the other.

In so many ways, the former is way more difficult than the latter.

It’s hard to believe that this was 16 years ago. But now, here we are. Both of these two little ones are grown and living their best lives. Ethan is spending his Spring Break playing baseball. Libby is spending hers on the beach with friends.

Amy and I are joyfully resting.

My favorite feature of the house we are staying at in FL may be the patio ceiling fan. This area is always shaded and this fan makes it so comfortable when you’re done with the sun.
