the good things

photo by brian ferry || originally posted here


these days, the good things are smaller than the shadows.
so i want to try harder than ever to reach out
with sometimes-blind hands, and cherish them,
and put them in the deep pockets of my heart for safekeeping.


so, the good things about this week so far:
1.) a significant cellular device upgrade that has me feeling rather modern
2.) type-chatting with Rachel (who's recently relocated to Scotland) yesterday morning
3.) a timely cup of cinnamon starbucks coffee (with 3 sugars) this morning
4.) a free night (thank God) to be at home (for once) and pay bills (okay, fine) tonight
5.) the long, elbow-length-sleeve coral cardigan i'm wearing today
6.) late nights
7.) early dreams
8.) hard work that pays off
9.) outrageous ideas that lead to uncontrollable laughter
10.) the dance party always happening in my soul

what about you? i want to hear your good things.

What I'd do for a cute coral cardigan and a cinnamon cup of jo right now!

So far, today has been a great day! I just got out of a meeting that was very successful, and left with more direction for my next move. Feels good to be moving closer to my goal. :)

The cardigan is really your favorite. Don't try to deny it.

Miss you.
