Still sick although sleeping most of today helped. I actually sat in the park today and read. At one point, I laid down on the park bench stared at the beautiful blue sky and meditated at one point. How cool is my life? I can read Douglas Coupland books in May in a park and watch the world go by. I thanked the spirits that be that I am well and watched over. It was a powerful moment. I felt grounded and content for awhile.
It doesn't always last but it's important to hold onto those moments. I am now listening to some electronic music and appreciating all I have.

With mother's day coming up -- it's important to remember family. Not because of some made up holiday but because without holidays to remind us to give a bit extra -- we tend to overlook or forget. I never realized how quickly my mother could go from healthy to sick. I miss her daily and realize how important it is to just say I love you or I think you are amazing.
I think I will go call my Dad now.
