Love Day: For my Valentine

I spent Valentines day rewriting my exam, my head stuffed up. My brain feeling like cotton. Nothing felt good but my second attempt felt easier. I woke up at six ... i had an extra hour to sleep in this morning and lay in bed. My morning mediation was about love and feeling love all around.

This past ...I have struggled and felt sick/exhausted. My head cold still feels strong even today after six days. My garage bin filled with kleenex and I sneezed most days. I have not felt this sick for so long in a couple of years. I'm lucky to have good health. Each afternoon ... I would stare at my text book ...trying to remember the taxation chapter and retirement planning. I was planning on another afternoon nap in my very short time horizon. Nothing about studying when sick feels easy.

I'm thinking about the future things I want ... and where I want to be. I can't decide ... options are slowly coming my way. I am thinking of going back to school. I am in awe I am even considering this ... after saying last september I would not be going back to school for several years. It's amazing what a surf retreat does to ambition.

So much to be thankful for this week. I am feeling lucky at work and appericated which is does not happen very often from employers. Each day is new day and so lucky to be here to experience the growth and love.

Rob is coming over tomorrow or maybe later tonight. I bought him a tin of west coast tea ...and a card..with the words je t'aime on the front of it. Can't believe so many milestones we have experienced together, We are lucky. I'm feeling good inside wishing the world could share my happiness.

It was nice to have the day off ...to spend to shop after my exam. I do not go downtown very often anymore but I enjoyed the stores and the new clothes. I have some ideas for spring shopping.

The streets were filled with small venders selling flowers ... and it was nice to see all pink/white/red colours on the street corners. Spring is coming to Vancouver and the city is coming back to life.

Best Wishes to those who are feeling loved tonight and hope and hugs to those who feel alone. A heart has so much hope ..... to be beautiful and shine.

Miracles did happen last weekend ... Rob skidded away the island highway. He was not hurt and the car was not damaged. Truly a miracle as the only harm was Rob was very shaken up. Small Miracles happening everyday in our lives.
