Observe and Revel

Let’s revel in our numbered days on a turning earth.

I’ve always been an observer. Even as a little girl I remember paying very close attention to my environment, whether it was the details on a blanket; how threads are woven together in cloth; how raindrops seem to simply roll on smooth surfaces; how insects inhabited the earth beneath dead, fallen grasses; how smoke curls, separates, then dissipates; how adults moved or behaved; how a dog dreams.

I grew up and one aspect of my personality never changed: I am an observer. That inclination is likely what moved me forward on the many trajectories I have embarked upon in my life. One thing that observations have done for me is to install a deep appreciation for life and all its forms. Let’s revel in our numbered days on a turning earth.

“The world is mud-luscious and puddle-wonderful.” — e.e. cummings

Until next Monday may your week be puddle-wonderful and revel in your numbered days on this earth.

Postscript:
my read shelf:

For any of you who may be interested in the recent books I’ve read and perhaps want to read my comments, I have added a Goodreads widget at the very bottom of the blog {where you’ll be able to read the first few lines of my comments.} If you have a Mac, simply use the “down arrow key” with the “Command” button to snap to the bottom of the screen. I’m sorry but I don’t know how to snap to the bottom if you use a PC, but scroll always works too 🙂

With all these efficiencies going on, for a change, I already have next weeks post written and lined up in the WP scheduler. I’m sure that won’t happen often 😉
