i've made a decision... at last



it came to me
in a moment of ~beauty~ today
as i sat with my surgeon
in his office

i have been trying to see the bigger picture
i have been trying to balance up the weight of the world
i have been trying to know everything all at once

i have been walking blind

it is one of the things that cancer has taught me
to slow down to the music of the moment
i don't need ~all~ the answers all at once now

i just need to take one day at a time

it's what my dad tried so ~beautifully~ to remind me
it's what my doctor says looking deep into my eyes
it's what my spiritual advise has always recommended

and it's what my ~heart~ sings to me as i lay my hand upon it

just to take each beautiful day
that i am given
and ~live~ it

...one day at a time

Ain't it the truth, the truth for each and every one of us, regardless of our specific circumstances?!?!

It can be hard to think and then act in alignment with what we know, but if we can, that is where flow is found, that is where true inner peace lies.

I've experienced this for myself, and it sounds like this day was one where that little secret to life worked it's "got it" inside of you. It brings such peace! Thanks for this post today, as it reminded me of the Truth. I'm so glad this is where you are today.
