6 Gems! vol. 22: Out with the old.

Old skin. Old ideas. Old talk. Sloughing it off. Shaking it off.

I didn’t post this morning, because I was thinking about September 11. My husband and I headed to an appointment as Taps played on the radio, marking the real time of these horrible losses all of us share. Names of the dead were read out loud.

I couldn’t think about anything else, and I imagined many of you couldn’t either, so I held this post back to give us time to breathe.

I took a slow day of sleeping and smoothies. The dental surgery knocked me down in a way I may have needed.

In ways big and small, I crave the feeling that change is possible. I feel urge to scream “DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT!” Want to scream it with me? Or just whisper it?

Some treats, some small thoughts, to send ourselves a signal.
