She Will Not Be Quiet: A (mostly daily, mostly unedited) writing practice
I will be taking a break from posting here over this Thanksgiving holiday. I’ll see you back here on Monday, December 1st.
Day #238 of (mostly unedited, mostly daily) writing/sharing
Little Big Miracles
It takes so little, really— to turn a day, maybe a whole life, around. A soft smile of me-too from the stranger in the hospital waiting room, the nice nurse who leans in close and calls you honey. The moment in the parking lot when, finally, you get to hug your healthy daughter and she holds longer than she needs to. The neighbor who shows up at your front door, homemade bread in hand. The friend who sends you photographs of birds because she wants you to have a moment of beauty in your very hard day, and she knows you love few things more than you love birds. A moment with the moon— how she lifts your head, gives you everything simply by shining her light. The good news. The exhale. The full table. I can’t stop saying thank you. I don’t ever want to stop saying thank you.
