As part of my spiritual growth I am rediscovering the little things in life. The stuff that really matters, no matter what "they" say. It is the door being opened, a smile from a stranger, a compliment that was unprompted. I have been so fortunately to be surrounded by kind little things done by those around me.
I find myself grateful for the offer of a vitamin when someone realizes I haven't been taking one enough, the compliment of my smile being "a million bucks" and my smile and laughter as contagious, someone walking to me to my car at the end of an evening or after work, the lighting of a cigarette, the offer to fix my chair at work or get me an extra cable, offer for a coffee break when they don't want coffee, the soft caress of my back--just because with no expectations or strings attached.
I find inspired. I have received more than given for a long time for all those former hurts. I can't protect myself forever without giving up on living and giving up on who I am. So here I am on a new journey once again.
