Raindrops on Roses, etc.

Tonight I am a bundle of nerves about my upcoming trip, and so, in an effort to quiet myself a little, here are some things that have been really lovely lately.

• Cherries, lots of them.
• The full moon.
• Yoga in the mornings.
• Peppermint tea at my desk in the afternoons.
• The white-tailed deer I saw while biking this weekend.
• The feeling of my pillows at the end of the day.
• Having a dishwasher.
• Reading, always.
• But especially Elizabeth Johnson lately.
• (I'm working on this right now.)
• Creative meetings.
• And also catered meetings. (Because if they can't be fun, they can at least be delicious.)
• Cold water.
• Shifting perspective - sometimes a lot.
• Saying yes instead of no.
• But saying no sometimes, too.
• Figuring out when to say one or the other.
• Learning that a lot of it can be felt, instead of thought.
