Rested.....

It has been a very long time since I slept in on a Saturday....but today when I looked at the clock it was 10:50 am???? No beach to get up and walk, no friends voices or places to go... Just me at home in Michigan with my dog Mel ( who by this time really needed me to get up and out of bed!) Now the day stretches before me with the promise of a good day - maybe more relaxing and laid back than I have had for a while, but still a gift to explore and to make count! I will head out for a walk with Mel after this post! The sun is shining and even though I will need to bundle up, it will feel warm on my face and give me my time to contemplate all that I have been given this past few weeks. I have nurtured friendships and collected new images to carry with me on my journey through life. I have the promise of a continued relationship with some one special and I hope to be able to cultivate and grow with this person, allowing for all love and great moments to just be, without questioning - how long? For me to just learn to live simply, enjoy thoroughly, give wholeheartedly, and express God's love completely... This is my mantra!
