Morning Thoughtsharers
It's a good one, a wet one, a cloudy one, but still a GOOD MORNING!  Tagging on to yesterday's post, I still don't know the cause of my virus, but I'm working out the cure.  Building blocks - I like that LilSoul!  There's progress in building blocks.  There's creativity in building blocks.  There's great potential in building blocks.  I really like that.

As I awoke this morning, or better yet when I laid down last night, I had these plans.  I was going to make some calls (after the family went to sleep), do my hair, prepare myself for the next day.  None of that happened.  I eventually fell asleep, which must have been needed.  Of course when I woke up...I thought, in a panic, of all the things I didn't do.  Then, as I rushed around to get ready and get the girls ready, I thought how much better it would have been if I had been prepared.  But you know what, regret is often wasted energy.  So big girl that I am, I let it go.

We rushed out, rolled my girls out at my mom's house, and jetted to work.  Of course...in my rush I left my 'work' shoes, my umbrella, and didn't bother to pack a lunch.  So as I walked the quarter mile to my office from the parking deck, it poured all over me.  Warm, rushing rain.  My hair drenched (the few curls now looking like the stray hairs on a cat), my dress soaked (good thing it isn't transparent), but strangely I felt so good.  Wet but good.  I'm smiling looking every bit like a drowned raggedy ann doll.  For those few moments walking in the rain, I just wanted to lift my hands up and dance.  It was a God shower - a cleansing - a renewing.  It revived me.

Nothing has changed...the virus is probably still lurking.  If I look too hard at circumstances and issues and concerns and challenges and obstacles...I may fall apart.  But, for those few moments, as the rain poured down and soaked me, I felt happy and alive. 

I found another building block. AND I have written two days in a row.  YEHHHHHHH for me!
