a day off

tomorrow i begin my temp job.  yesterday i ended my full time teaching job for the summer break.  but today.  glorious today.  full of hours to do as i choose...and as i need.  i am blessed beyond words to have the gift of time.  the gift of love and friends and kids.   i am going to treasure this day.  hold it in my heart.  until i get to have a break.
i am full of heart.  of thankfulness.  for rain.  for painting.  for washing machines.  yes, washing machines.  i am so glad that i don't have to beat my clothes on a stone in a river.  i am thankful for the opportunity to find purpose in this day.
life is such a treasure...but sometimes it seems hidden by the constant demands.  i am learning to get to a place of appreciating life itself.  the moments. not allowing it to disappear under my to do list.
breath.  so thankful to breathe.
i hope that your day finds you thankful.  and if it hasn't yet, cultivate one or two...you'll be surprised at how they grow when nurtured.
blessings.
