All the preparation and planning have led up to this day. We are about to host mom‘s birthday bash. The weather is perfect, she is healthy and in good spirits, and all is in place.
My early morning practice reminds me of the poem from Saint Teresa of Avila. She wrote that after a night of prayer and meditation, “laughter came from every brick”. Instead of carrying burdens, she received the guidance from her Lord to “Enjoy Me”.
What burden do you need to set down? Can you hear the laughter coming from every brick, every tree, every flower, every blade of grass…? Ki to Happiness remembers to Enjoy.
