How many moments
While deep in contemplation
Have I breathed in joy
This is one of those moments of serious gratitude, because while I certainly would not have consciously chosen to dump tea on my laptop, I think the fact that it happened was a way for the universe to tell me to stop, slow down, and just breathe for a while.
And it is amazing, just two days away from my laptop, and already my stress level is a fraction of what it was.
Even though I am aware of how much we see and hear is purely illusion, it is so easy to have an opinion, and that leads to judgments, including about self and others, and far too often they are harsh judgments.
I badly needed a break and I got one.
So even though I am unable to post links, I am able make simple posts, and they have enabled to keep my creative juices flowing, while keeping my stress level at a manageable level.
Thanks for reading, and I hope you all have a wonderful day or night. I'll look forward to seeing you again later.
The photo is one I took a couple of days ago, less than fifteen minutes from our place, overlooking the Caney Fork River.
Earlier:
In one of my more graceful moments, I managed last light to spill an almost-full cup of peppermint tea into my laptop. Ugh.
In any case, since I'm posting this from my phone, adding the photo and formatting will just have to wait.
Hopefully my laptop will come through this still operational, and all will be back to normal tomorrow.
Have a wonderful evening, everyone! See you tomorrow. ;-)
