Just noticing

I'm aching to come back here, to spill forth words that evoke such strong emotions. Lately life is an interesting mix of highs and lows. So much to share, but I'm filled with resistance. Why? I haven't listened for the answer yet.

In an effort to reconnect with this space, I am going to start noticing one thing each day for the next week and share it here. Ordinary things that catch my attention, nothing terribly exciting or profound. That's where it begins.

Today-

I'm at peace, finally. I've been waiting for this moment for over a month. My mind is quiet, my to-do list bare. I'm curled up in the bright red chair, barefoot, listening to the wind. The back door bangs open, shut, open, shut.
