Note to Self

Just a brief reminder to myself this morning (after a long sleepless painful night), that the world is full of wonderment and surprise and laughter too. I have only to open my eyes and look. John O'Donohue said it best.

I would love to live
like a river flows,
carried by
the surprise
of its own unfolding.

John O'Donohue
(from Connemara Blues)

    So sorry you've been in pain. It's especially difficult when trying to sleep.

    The verse you've quoted is wonderful & inspiring.

    May your pain already be gone!
