“For any writer who wants to keep a journal, be alive to everything, not just to what you're feeling, but also to your pets, to flowers, to what you're reading.”

― May Sarton

things that make me feel alive :: a list
light, all kinds of light
hugs from Percy
birds calls
my walks with Percy
watching the garden wake up
a light spring rain
flowers opening
Baker’s silly routines
an unexpected good book
all the different shades of green
letting go of resentment
true friendship
being heard and understood
love, so much love
