One sunny or cloudy morning in the future

A shining blue morning but very chilly at the top of the hill.

 Every morning I receive a Note from The Universe...sometimes I don't resonate with it but I like this one...

"Do you know what the former-living celebrate the  most, when they consider their earlier times in space?

Not homes bought, cars driven, mountains climbed or islands hopped, but fears faced, hearts mended, faith restored and love bared." 

And this quote from Azul Valerie Thome....

Grief is not a negotiation with Death

but a generous Love Letter to Life.

And one moment from my day....

Sitting at the kitchen table

strewn with photo copies of the new design of my house,

glossy brochures of baths and showers

hard floors and granite work surfaces,

 a plate of sesame cheese biscuits 

and two cups of tea...growing cold,

talking to my friend who is helping and advising me 

on all things technical and structural,

I suddenly feel excited.

I can almost  imagine what it might feel like 

to be sitting at a different  table 

a real one, made of wood, not a plastic garden one,

in my new kitchen living space.

With double doors opening out onto 

my beautiful garden.

And sharing it all

 with whoever has come to have tea

and cake with me,

one sunny or cloudy morning 

in the future.
