Last summer I was holding hands with my own mortality. Last summer, I couldn't do anything to help my family. Last summer, my life was extraordinarily difficult again.
But I made it through it without nicotine. My family and real friends were awesome. Life goes on, the Garden grows with the sunshine of kindness and healing. The Most Beautiful Flower tends her Garden with soul and with heart.
I'm so very grateful.
OK, so I've stopped smoking and I exercise more. I watch my food (to see if I like it) - that's another subject, perhaps? Chronicles of simple posts and short observations. Stay tuned and work along with me if you can! Continuing down the road!

Last summer was the beginning
Life is good today
Living in this moment, life is good. Even when the world around me writhes with its daily grind, I can find peace in this moment, at least. It takes time to bring myself to peace sometimes - it takes time to re-focus on the moment sometimes.
It can even be difficult to get my brain to let go of control enough to allow myself to find comfort in the moment, but I CAN do it. I only have to try and keep at it.
Today, I am more than 5 years without nicotine. Today, my weight is reasonable. These days, I get 6 or more hours of sleep each day. Today I live fully, love fully, and breathe fully.
