at the end of each month, i take stock of the daily goodness i’ve encountered and share it in a facebook post. occasionally i write about it here, in my studio notes, as well. the month of march is about to come to a close, and i’m finally checking in about february. it was a rather tough month for me, so i assumed my list wouldn’t be as long this time.
once again, however, this exercise reminded me WHY i do this in the first place. goodness can be found in even the darkest moments. we simply need to notice.
my february goodness:
- true meditation
- communication with sons
- imbolc cleansing bath
- new close connections on social media
- fun times with italian friends at villa magnolia
- short online strength training sessions with nick drago (and leslie sansone’s miracle band)
- announcing my retreat bonuses (a visit to a 12th-century castle and a pasta-making lesson with an italian chef)
- italian hot chocolate
- reflexology appointments
- a peaceful day at the sea and a lovely dinner out on valentine’s day
- priest’s blessing over our casa
- touched and delighted to be included in two dear italian friends’ birthday celebrations
- watching some of the olympics with eric (through youtube tv)
- a thorough cleaning/inventory/organization of my refrigerator’s crisper drawer
- younger son on his college dean’s list
- continuing to keep up a daily practice of qi gong (since the beginning of the year)
- learning more about essential oils
- nathan chen’s amazing figure skating redemption
- fun date at the mall with eric
- older son’s career advancements
- “makko ho” meridian stretches
- watching the “carpe diem/seize the day” scene from the movie dead poets society (for the hundredth time)
- younger son turns 20
- “the voice” season premiere
- hummus beet wraps
have you been taking a moment to notice the goodness in YOUR daily life?
