A few minutes with my eldest over a coffee shop treat

Inspiring listens and reads

A fun date night to a friend’s wedding

Minimalizing my iPhone

Hearing Julia’s voluminous vocal cords

Witnessing Anna’s tenderness with her baby doll

This song

The gift of friends to share the messy and real with

Re-watching Sherlock with John

This cleanser stick

A sunny, warm day amidst clouds and rain

The vulnerability and honesty of this book

---

Come and find the qui­et cen­ter
In the crowd­ed life we lead
Find the room for hope to enter
Find the frame where we are freed
Clear the chaos and the clut­ter
Clear our eyes that we can see
All the things that real­ly mat­ter
Be at peace and sim­ply be.
(From ​“Come and Find the Qui­et Cen­ter” by Shirley Ere­na Murray)
