Thanks for your lovely comment and for sharing your suggestion about rewording so diplomatically. Those words belong to Mary Oliver, whose poem I was quoting, and which I love, so I decided to quote them as written. But I do appreciate your sentiment. Blessings back to you 🙂

Thank you and your reader before you for sharing this amazing poetry share website. I lead meditation a few times a week and looking for poems or prayers for opening and closing reflections can be a bit of effort at times – so I will share this too with our other meditation leaders. The thing most brilliant about poetry is it’s always a pay it forward -find it – love it – share it 🙂

((Hugs)) – Michelle

I’m so very glad you found my blog, too, and I cherish our friendship. I’m glad this post was a gentle reminder for you that it’s okay to rest when needed–and that we each, every one of us, can choose, again, each day, each moment, how we will live. (And just thrilled you liked the painting too!! :))

I’m so very glad I found your blog, and in doing so, found a new friend. This post helps me remember that I need to rest more – I can’t just ignore it, lest I fail to reboot my windshield. I can choose, too – often I forget. Thanks for the reminder, and the lovely post (and painting!) to start the new year.

Well, not happy to hear you have shared the shattered glass phenomenon, but that just goes to show us it doesn’t just apply to MS. And so glad you liked the different textures in the haystack!! 🙂 xo

I am not sure if the brain haze I have felt is the same as with MS, but the description applies for me too 🙂
Also, I love the different textures in the haystack painting!

xoxo
