Someone on Facebook just said it was Thursday. What? Are you sure? Where did Monday through Wednesday go?
What did I do in those three days prior today? Maybe for today I am a box or Rice Crispies Cereal. I think I can hear myself snap, crackle, and pop.
All I really remember from these past few days is Al and frustrations. Maybe I was standing beside Michael Buble when he sang A Foggy Day In London
It is time to put the cereal box feelings a way. Today I want to be beautiful rose with gentle petals opening after a morning dew. Walking with grace and confidence, calm and graceful. Strong standing tall.
A rose that I do see
Standing oh so near to me
Never afraid to stand apart
Showing steady a beating heart
For today I will breathe and inhale
This flower’s strength and I shall
Take the day as it comes
And I shall sing and also hum
That the soul of the Rose is inside of me
And the beauty I carry for all to see.
