we simply need to notice.
at the end of each month, i take stock of the daily goodness i've encountered and share it in a facebook post. occasionally i write about it here, in my studio notes, as well. the month of march is about to come to a close, and i'm finally checking in about february. it was a rather tough month for me, so i assumed my list wouldn't be as long this time. once again, however, this exercise reminded me WHY i do this in the first place. goodness can be found in even the darkest moments. we simply need to notice. my february goodness:
true meditation
communication with sons
imbolc cleansing bath
new close connections on social media
fun times with italian friends at villa magnolia
short online strength training sessions with nick drago (and leslie sansone's miracle band)
announcing my retreat bonuses (a visit to a 12th-century castle and a pasta-making lesson with an italian chef)
italian hot chocolate
reflexology appointments
a peaceful day at the sea and a lovely dinner out on valentine's day
priest's blessing over our casa
touched and delighted to be included in two dear italian friends' birthday celebrations
watching some of the olympics with eric (through youtube tv)
a thorough cleaning/inventory/organization of my refrigerator's crisper drawer
younger son on his college dean's list
continuing to keep up a daily practice of qi gong (since the beginning of the year)
learning more about essential oils
nathan chen's amazing figure skating redemption
fun date at the mall with eric
older son's career advancements
"makko ho" meridian stretches
watching the "carpe diem/seize the day" scene from the movie dead poets society (for the hundredth time)
younger son turns 20

hummus beet wraps
have you been taking a moment to notice the goodness in YOUR daily life?
