April Love -- Day Thirteen ...



Dear Senses,
What would I do without you? Not being able to touch someone. Not to feel a gentle breeze. Not to hear the music I love. Not to see the ocean. Not to know what it smells like after a rainstorm. I realize you do not miss what you never had, but life would not be as fulfilling. The beauty in nature. Sunrises. Sunsets. To enjoy holding a newborn. Giving our pets attention. The hug from another human being. A gentle kiss. A soft blanket. Seeing a rainbow. Hearing a child laugh. Fresh snow. Crispy Autumn leaves. The chill in the air. Having a sixth sense. Just knowing things are going to happen before they do. I feel I have always had this. I consider it a gift. It never steers me wrong. I am grateful for all of these senses. All of them combined makes the world more colorful, beautiful and inviting.

It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...
