day 328

on being
.
if
I were to change
who
would send you glimmers 
or feed the birds, the crows, the deer, or
help souls
in need of kindness, or 
share wisdom gleaned from life…
who indeed?
if I were to change

There’s a tiny crater on the top of my head. It’s all that remains of the bit of cancer that reminded me a month or so ago that I am mortal. The cancer is gone, expertly excised by my surgeon, but the indentation remains, and a bald spot amidst my already thinning hair.  

I am grateful to be on the mend. And also grateful to know that we “got it all”. But this tiny detour from my routine did give me pause. It has filled me with an urgency to be the best version of myself that I can be. To tread lightly on the earth with compassion and kindness. None of us is promised tomorrow but we can choose how we live each moment that we are given. 

Much love, peace, and glimmers to you!

Today’s glimmer is this cutie. My youngest grandson holding his niece, my great granddaughter! He is 4 years on this planet today. Happy birthday little buddy. I hope we can right the ship before you’re old enough to take the helm. I wish that for all the children.
