My word for 2018 is focus, which requires paying attention to the moment – the now. So, this year, I’ll be taking note of experiences I may have missed, without focus. Many may seem to be BGO’s (blinding glimpses of the obvious), but hey, I might have missed them.

Here’s this week of NOWS:

a hopeFULL message from The Gospel;

remembering the power of themultiple sclerosis in my body;

witnessing a heron meander through my yard;

finding the recipe for The Perfect ‘cheese biscuit’;

the powerFULL feeling of lightening and thunder;

being humbled by Mother Earth;

fixin’ catfish for Tom;

seeing the deer feasting in Tom’s yard;

sharing homemade lemon-aid with friends;

a friend finding a stone with HEAL hand painted on it, exactly when she needed it;

how we’re all doing the.best.we.can;

ice cream cones at 9:10pm;

THAT MOON;

how Bloss leans into my hand, when I stroke her, as she sleeps;

making blueberry jam for the first time; and

the overwhleming gratitude I feel for and to Tom.

What NOWS did you witness or experience this week?
