choice

I can't decide on a truth and beauty moment for the day. It was a good day, full of lovely interactions with lovely people. My kitchen is clean. I have fresh vegetables in the fridge. It was sunny and there was a strong breeze, so I could enjoy the brightness without my apartment getting too hot. A good friend got really good news about her career. I spent two hours with new clients, a couple overjoyed that their long years of longing will soon bring a baby into their arms. I saw a chocolate lab puppy in the park. I expect to see Mr. Spark again tomorrow. I have a lot of work to do, but don't feel overwhelmed.

Often, something specific jumps out over the rest, but today was just a gentle and lovely day. All of these simple things bring a measure of joy to my heart. I cried today too, but was also able to share the reason for the tears with a friend who, I think, understood. So even the tears felt right and good.

For all this, I'm thankful.
