i’m sitting here sipping a cup of cappuccino, which is good and relaxing, but my favorite hot drink is a spiced chai. the sunshine is illuminating the world around me. it is such a beautiful day and i wonder why everyday can’t be spent simply enjoying the day rather than rushing off to work or endless errands. it seems like so much of our day is taken up by the various activities that allow us to have just a few moments to spare to enjoy ourselves or to follow our true passions. we compromise so much of our time, but it seems at times we have little choice, unless we are independently wealthy and have “people” who worry about the problems of our everyday life. unfortunately, that isn’t most of us. so what are we to do? nothing i guess. just do what we can, work to give ourselves the few moments in which we can slow down, sit and take in the world. so i take another sip, relax into my chair and relish the beauty of this day.
