Each morning, like molasses on a cold winter’s day, I move slowly, thickly and carefully, warming up my sleepy body and waking from deep unconsciousness. I spend 20-30 minutes in bed nourishing myself emotionally, spiritually and mentally in bed before rising. I take this time to prepare myself to “be” in the world and live with purpose, meaning and joy.
This bowl of soup was one of the meals I ate in Scotland. It was beautiful and filled with nourishment. I savoured it and reflected on each bite. Beautiful experience.
Life is like a box of chocolates Forrest Gump once said, and while we may never know what lies in each bite it can still be sweet, enjoyed and savoured.
This week at the #agingwell group we are exploring death, end of life and transition…. Sweet content to be savoured like my soup.
Take your time. Slow down and realize the nourishment in your spoonfuls of daily living.
