"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return."

[Tara, I totally stole this from you. But it was just too perfect- I owe ya!]

Today was one of those days,
where I could just enjoy the beauty of an ordinary day.
I took a deep breath. And another.
I took in my surroundings.
I said hi to strangers and let my mind wander.
I felt so grateful that today was ordinary.
I've never really thought about what a blessing
that truly is.
Although,
I did chew an entire pack of gum today.
Which should never be normal.
It was tasteless and I needed taste!
All day, obviously.
