January. Post Epiphany & MLK Day.
Ok, so I need to take down the Christmas décor before I can have space for something, anything new. That’s clear enough. And the internal bargaining begins…What if I just got a few primroses for the pots outside? Could I do that before I get the tree down? Maybe what I need is a kick start – you know, something bright and cheery for inspiration?
So, primroses.
A house free of Christmas clutter.
My closet dealt with.
Boxes opened, sorted, and lots of stuff tossed from my study
and the leftover church stuff in the garage tackled.
A plan – that’s what I need. A plan that takes me through this year.
Through graduation. Summer. Fall. Then moving back to Seattle.
Deadlines do help.
What do I want to do? What do I need for me?
Prayer time. Quiet meditation space. Poetry. Writing.
Time for imagining what could be. Hospitality.
Finding the sacred in everyday. Noticing. Time with my gurus.
That feels good.
Like I can take a deep breath and know that hope/help is on the way.
Amen.
