the present moment

Today has been an odd day for me—I had a ‘slow down’day, I guess you could say. I kicked Sean and his daughter off for a movie and had time to myself. It was kinda weird. I knew I needed time to work on my journal, take a look at where I am on my requirements….check my email….(I avoid it. I hate seeing a million messages). I usually am go-go-go, but summer always brings the chance to slow down and reflect on the year; what worked, what didn’t, what do I want this year to be like. Kinda like new years, just new school year. I read, I dreamed, I journalled, I meditated. I know, hard to believe. I think I have an inkling of a thought on my goals this year. But the real gem today was to relax, slow down and just be. I think I need more of that this year.
