And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:

A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH

New Day Coming


Earth, ourselves,
breathe and awaken,
all things moving,
new day coming,
life renewing.
              - Pawnee Prayer


Most of us have been working really really hard
at work lately.  By the end of the week, 
many people mention how exhausted they are!

The older I get, the more I appreciate the
restorative power of sleep.
I used to hate wasting time sleeping,
but now I am amazed at how a good sleep
can renew me completely!

Like the earth seems to sleep beneath
the snows of winter,
the activity of day comfortably
slows beneath the dark  of night
and my Spirit is renewed.

Older ... wiser ... grateful ...
