I got together with friends this morning. A time in which my soul was nurtured by
belonging with a group of others was had. Lucky me---really.

As the day went on, my friends and I took a stroll, followed by a shared lunch. The salad prepared was fantastic. I hadn't had one with pears before---in a non-fruit salad.
I'm so glad delighting in things that once passed my attention. Today, I noticed the cranberries and the salad dressing. I took in the smiles shared with each other and the caring, stimulating conversation of those around me. Best of all, I laughed!
Being in tune with the world around me---feeling my senses and being in touch with them is creating an aliveness that is deeper than anything I've known before. It's wonderful seizing life, no longer allowing fearful control or other static in my mind to distract me from the beauties that life offers each day.
I'm sure you can read within my post the many gratitudes I have for Saturday.
How about you?
1. What has been nurturing your soul lately?
2. What are you noticing, that at one time you passed, in your desire to be efficient for the day?
3. What is the more primal part of you sensing today? What might your soul, not your mind, be saying to you? Please share.

I find that my sense of smell is so acute but listening to live music last night was nice. I enjoy not having as much on my agenda as I once did.
Hi there, Syd,
Thanks for your answer. Isn't interesting the senses that come alive, when we are in touch with our felt sense?
Music is good. I look forward to seeing my favorite jazz pianist soon.
It must feel good slowing down, to smell the seashore, enjoying time with your wife and walking with your new dog.
Thanks for dropping by. I'll be sending you a letter soon. I have an idea. It'll be an email. My address will say: "The Gratitude Guy."
