Weary

Breathing in a moment of Grace

while recovering from pneumonia

Even a small case, takes time...

and I'm starting to feel weary from it.

This week I intend to take

extra gentle care of myself

by being with and allowing room

for the weariness,

all while tending to myself

by resting and trusting

that I am doing the best I can

in each moment.

Writing this out

actually brings tears this afternoon ....

during other

much, *much* bigger illnesses,

I wasn't able to attend and allow

like I want to tenderly practice this week.

 

Ah, she says with a soft smile,

an invitation to practice my word for the year, Hope.
