It’s an amazing thing. Today, on Day 9, I tried all day to do a small thing. I searched. I combed. I hunted tirelessly.
And I did manage to do some small things already on my list. I thought nicer things. I drank water (and a bit of cocktail). I prayed little prayers for those around.
But I COULD NOT find a new small thing. I sat sadly with my on-theme Halloween bowl full of delightful things and no one rang the bell.
So now I am packing it in. Turning off my light and hoping I don’t ear the whole bowl myself (which would totally happen in the real life version of this metaphor…St. Vincent would help!)
Here’s to hoping I see a good pebble tomorrow! How hard can it be? Harder than I thought apparently.
I adore you!
Your small thing would be to forgive yourself for not finding another small thing. You’ll find something tomorrow.
