!!!NOW!!!

Laughing All The WAY!

There were obviously comedians with their tattered books that resembled bibles.  All three were nestled in the back of the cafe preparing for their on stage night of comedy.  I suggest I might be funny while I waited in line for the bathroom.  No one laughed at my words but I could tell they wished  it would be my turn for the restroom  sooner than later.   I was certain a woman was in there because it was taking FOREVER.  Really what takes so long to tinkle????  A man exited and so I said, "Only a woman takes that long, what were you doing?"  He said, "That's personal and I can't tell you!"  Wow, I quickly zipped my jaw and took my turn.  When I was leaving the three Comedians still sat on the couches reading over their notes and thinking intently scamming the pages of there books... I was surprised to learn  that there was so much  note taking and writing  involved with preparation for on stage Comedy.  I could not stay for the show, but will be back next week to listen, laugh and wait in line for the bathroom!  Thank you 3 men in back for sharing your dry, couch sitting, tattered and torn page secrets and humor... peace ~love

I love Clippers

I was at my Dad's house working last weekend helping out in the yard, trimming, pruning and raking.  This bushy shrub with long prickly vines grew out of control in an area that was overcrowded with other shrubs so I was asked to trim it back all the way or dig it up.  I was handed a pair of clippers that were small and dull so I asked if there were others around with longer blades.  He directed me the garage where I found a 55 year old  black pair of clippers weighing 25 lbs.  I carried them to the bush and began clipping away.  The comment I heard was, "Those clippers are useless, dull and don't work."  I continued clipping away and soon the shrub was level with the ground.  My Dad said, "Well , look there, you did  IT even with those ancient clippers, but then again only you could of done that thanks to all the years of clipping practice you have been blessed with."  I laughed and  suddenly remembered the countless times of trimming grass from under the fences in the pasture as a consequence for behavior as a child.  This was my Dad's way of redirecting me when I was young.  Behaviors that led to clipping:  if I said- guy, no, why,  rolled my eyes,  argued or  quarreled with my brother. For any of these infractions I clipped, clipped, clipped... He reminded me I clipped the grass frequently.  As I recall the clippers were old, and the kind that are hand held, heavy with long blades.  My job was to clip the grass from under the fence which was never an easy task even though it was clipped frequently.  Finding gratitude for clippers, grass and evolution.  Today I am letting the grass grow...

Mermaid Lotus

The morning began in a usual way, with breath, stretching and coffee.  Routine and simple   was made naturally with the parting of all obstacles.  I found my self sitting at  my  office desk and swimming in thoughts of want.  Within seconds I  heard a car and stood to look out the window.  As I walked out to greet them I wandered what brought them to this part of town and  diverting me from my thoughts I was handed  a cup of hot jasmine organic tea and a vegan, super-yummy scone.  We chatted about the beauty of life, miracles and the over abundance of opportunity  that we each choose to see more clearly.  So grateful for this gift.  Thank you friends and thank you self for allowing...What a splendid morning- so delicious!
