I said yes…
things I like

I said yes…

written by Jana March 12, 2009

Today I said Yes to waking up curled up against John and hitting the snooze button over and over…and a homemade orange-cranberry scone and fresh strawberries.

I said Yes to jumping on the trampoline for my morning exercise and to giving the kitties their morning hugs. I said Yes to opening the curtains wide to let the morning sun inside, to wearing bright pink, to Rachmaninoff, and to giving myself this day to immerse myself in my research.

What are you saying Yes to today?

Very fun and inspiring post, giving some food for thought. Normally I just pop in to see your latest pics, but I felt compelled to comment.

Its an interesting idea to explore – and worth finding something to say YES to, even on an otherwise ordinary Thursday.

About Me

About Me

Hi there friend, and welcome to my blog. I started writing on the internet two decades ago. Since then I've started and finished a PhD program, left the Mormon church and became a Quaker, got divorced, remarried, found full-time work in academia, took up rock climbing and outrigger canoeing, and traveled across the globe (China! Belgium! Italy! Chicago! Montana! Portland! Gettysburg! and oh-so-many points in-between). This blog is eclectic and random--it has poetry and cooking and books. And cats. And flowers. And the ocean (my ocean). But in that sense it's a good reflection of me and my wide-ranging, far-reaching, magpie curiosity.
