Goodness and light

 Hold the light

Guard it

Like precious time

Once it dims

It takes awhile

Reigniting

Finding goodness

In everyday

Has become

My new job title

It’s almost

As essential

As taking breath

Is to my survival


In DC I took a little journey to the Botanical Gardens, and I took pleasure in not only admiring each rose, but leaning down and smelling them. Taking the adage literally was the best thing I could do for myself. That week I walked and walked. I took the time to pet every dog, Eat every delicious bite. And shop til I dropped. 

Real life connection is where it’s at right now. Gearing up for Christmas card season. My favorite. 

Love yourself and one another

  7. Oh, I wish we all could stop to smell the roses, Regine. People are so busy, and they are missing out on special little surprises that are awaiting for them in nature. The Botanical Gardens sound so peaceful, especially during this Autumn season.
