Today I am Loving {39a}

When the paper must get done, and you pull out all the stops.

Today I am Loving {39}

When the piano babies gather, and show us what they've learned.

Today I am Loving {38a}

When the friends gather with you around food and candles and pond lights, and you have just now made the connection that it is small groups gathering in your home (and not the come-one-come-all large ones) that put your soul at ease.

Today I am Loving {38}

When you have lived on this earth for nearly 38 years, and just now made the connection that when you are feeling completely hopeless and like the world should really just stop turning, there is most likely a correlation to the fact that you have forgotten to eat. 

Today I am Loving {37}

When you arrive home in a state of every-fiber-of-my-being-is-pretty-much-asleep-already, and the beautiful bed calls you.

Today I am Loving {36a}

When the dinner guests leave, but the deep young one stays,
and together you sit in the yard and talk way late into the candlelight,
about all the confusing thoughtful broken tear-filled now,
and you try to answer but more you need to listen,
and slowly slowly you both begin to realize how
only only is it that His Grace is sufficient,
and then you come inside to a kitchen full of the dirty rags and dishes,
and this sweet blue creature you've seen floating outside for days,
gracing you with her presence,
like a reminder.

Today I am Loving {36}

When you're doing the morning exercising on the floor beneath the weird plant, and look up to see what has sprouted, 

seemingly overnight.
