sleepy

E.E. Cummings

 The hardest days are the ones that you are doing dishes, and you realize you have to work for the rest of your life. And you haven't been sleeping well, is why it hurts.

But then you realize you are surrounded by wonderful people, who can still surprise you and make you laugh...

life still has some surprises?

yes.

And always I feel blessed by the safety I experience, living in the U.S., and I am blessed by my gracious God, to never go hungry or cold, or without medicine for the rocks and hard places.

So in the now.open.forever that I'm walking through with no handrails or paths, at least I have my God to keep talking to, and friends to shoot espresso shots with, when we would all rather still be in bed.
