The Simple Things ARE the Things

A toasty bagel oozing cream cheese

A crinkly wrapper compressed solidly in your fist

Sun light streaming

Fears, panic, stress receding

From a simple soul baring followed by an authentic affirmation

The joy and light of crisp fall leaves all around me

Radiance enters my soul and sings

    So true! A beautiful meditation on savoring the little things, which of course are the most precious, wonderful things that make up our lives!! I absolutely love this…and by the way, I love the title of your blog too 😍

      Thank you, Barbara! I find in motherhood especially we make things more difficult by not focusing on the simply sublime. And thank you for understanding the ‘chopping’ metaphor 🙂
