Celebrating Independence Day with my family, we each did our own thing a bit. I conducted a private session and taught class online as my mom filled out a rental application with my husband and our lawyer. Dad sat outside enjoying the view of the Illinois River with his dutiful caregiver.
We all came together for a moment of silence regarding another days’s mass shooting. Highland park Illinois will never be the same safe, clean, upscale suburb that it has been for decades. We sat out on the porch and enjoyed our safe clean upscale rural home, lighting sparklers together in gratitude for our simple pleasure.
How did you observe the holiday yesterday? Could you sparkle at all? Ki to Happiness sparkles plenty with simple pleasures independently enjoyed and moments of silence and togetherness.
