A very fine day

Morning everybody! What a wonderful day! Before the Christmas madness starts, here's a thought to lower your blood pressure and get you to be a Calm Person. Aristotle said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.” Even if you can only spare five minutes, use it to stay in touch with your self as a gathered soul. The point is to not lose your connection, however fragile or loose, to the calm self that is being created. Hold on to the effort and the belief that you will become such.


I took a little stroll
along the pathway
and observed the wild flowers blooming.

It was a very fine day.
