This is the story of the journey of my life. Travel can be hard work. So much to see. So little time. So many missed connections. So much lost luggage. But every stop, every detour, every challenge along the way provides a lesson to be learned. Traveling mercies to us all.

Sometimes...
a nap in the sun
is the perfect antidote
to whatever ails you.
Sometimes our dog, Maya, teaches me the most profound and true lessons.
Oh that I would listen and learn more attentively.
Watching her nap so peacefully, I had to smile.
And wonder at her total surrender to that spot in the sun.
Then the lesson came: be here now.
Surrender fully to live this moment, this situation in this place.
Right here, right now.
The truth is not only that "all shall be well,"
but it is also this: "all is well right now."
Wherever I am, whatever I am facing,
all is exactly as it should be.
Whatever "it" is.

Awwwww.
This photo melted my heart :-)
Surrender ~ and a nap in the sun...indeed.
Sublime.
We can learn a lot from our pets. They have no stress (except when mom and dad might leave them at the kennel). Ah, to nap, eat, and take leisurely walks ...
A great picture and a fabulous post. Thank you.
