It is still April.  The morning is mighty fine. I love how the sun comes through the windows and dances on the walls of the sun room and dining room at this hour. Everything is bathed in soft buttery light. I bask in its glow, appreciating the moment, knowing it will be gone soon.  This is what makes me feel lucky, knowing and appreciating the now.

Yes, I am sitting and holding this space from Kat McNally’s #AprilMoon.  I’m tap, tapping out the words from my fingertips.  I feel lucky, too, that I am able to do this – to breathe through my nose all the way down to my fingertips. The words come out, one by one.  They march across the screen, forming words and sentences.  They give me life and sustenance.  They help me live in the moment.  They anchor me in the now.

Sometimes I drift away, carried off by my thoughts, of course.  They are devious and intrusive – full of trickery.  I am mindful of them.  They can deceive you with their false truths.  I try not to spend time in that space of wondering – ‘if I will ever’.  Thoughts cannot do the deed.  Thinking is just thinking but it sure can burn up the energy.

I try to stay in the here and now, not examining the past nor wondering about the future.  I like it here, tap, tapping and watching the sun dance on the walls.  It is peaceful.  It is healing.
