WEEK ONE...DAY FIVE

I'm exhausted today. Sleeping was not a good thing last night. I spent hours on the computer cleaning up art in Photoshop and went to The Palos Verdes Art Center to attend a memorial for our wonderful custodian Bruce. Two older women are mourning the deaths of their spouses and a shining angel from my past is in hospice. I'm reading Committed by Elisabeth Gilbert. There was a very tender entry last night about her remembering her grandfather burying her grandmother's ashes on the family farm. You have someone for a little while, and then that person is gone. So it will come to pass for all of us. We all share our homes with Time, who ticks alongside us, reminding us of our ultimate destination. So let us cherish the ones we love a little bit extra today. Let's be a little kinder in word and deed.
This is BEACH BABY:  the innocent new life filled with wonder, embracing all that is without judgement.
The world is limitless and brimming with possibility. Be here now.
