A new month and I find myself re-focused and well rested...got a massage and my nails done...walked an hour and a half...the longer I walked, the better I felt. My feet were sore, but my head was clear and free. The air, incredibly clean while at the same time, laden with a heavy purple lilac scent blew my hair everywhere and cleared my skin. Everywhere I walked, blossoms strewn over sidewalks, steps, bushes and car tops...announced Spring, queen fresh herself, with gentle force... and I am new all over.
Quoting Ms. Evaleen Stein..."Peach-buds to meet thee, robins to greet thee, hey, little sweetheart and May morning, hey! Sunbeam and sing time, bluebird and wing time, this time is kiss time for sweethearts, I say!"
I have met peach-buds and robins today and their freshness whirls from the inside top of my head to the soles of my feet. I ate very little today. My other senses, engaged in a heightened fashion, kept hunger away. I delighted in observing a sleeping 10 month old toddler have her baby toes painted bright pink by her Mother. Such careful detail so delicately distributed on such dainty, immaculately tiny toenails...paying atention to beautiful detail is so much more rewarding than stuffing one's face...a gentle sleeping baby and the care of a mother trumps old dingy habits, bad behaviors and desires. On a gorgeous fresh May Day, self-indulgence fades.
