From this day forward,
I will practice the life skill of pausing.
Some call it "count to ten";
others say think before you do.
What makes this more powerful
is the conscious addition
of prayer.
Prayer for patience,
Prayer for peace,
Prayer as I pause.
As spring is trying struggling to set in and begin;
I realize that I haven been waiting for it's arrival
in the wrong way.
Instead of creating my own "internal" spring;
I have been moaning and groaning about longing for spring to arrive.
I am going to change that attitude.
I can begin to "decorate" my soul
by filling up with sunny thoughts,
warm acts of love and kindness to myself and others,
and spread the seeds of joy everywhere I can.
