This week I've felt grateful for
 new traditions
a few days of sunshine
and
the feeling of it's warmth on our bodies
I've felt grateful for
buds that transform into....
...blooms...
*
that open, expand, and embrace...
 ....the sky, the light, and all the goodness there is
*
I've felt grateful for
the gentleness of petals
simple moments of sweetness
the earth's beauty that we are each surrounded with every day
the scent of the first lilac
the brightness of blue
and
the surprise of borage flowers in the garden
 .......seeing life from new perspectives and angles.......
I've felt grateful for 
*
awe inspiring sights
*
a garden with columbines 
that look like.........
something magical from the faery's realm
*
This week I've felt grateful for
a slower pace
that brought realizations
rejuvenation time
that brought closeness
healing bodies
that brought family togetherness
frustrations that transformed into
blessings
*
I've felt grateful
for each and every reader
who finds joy here
and spreads it......

*
Happy Sunday.
May your hearts be filled with gratitude. 
Bless you all.
