Today

I hear my son's laughter trickle up the stairs as he banters with his friends while he plays video games.  I hear my daughter humming as she folds laundry.  The cats sit nearby watching the birds outside.  The sun will soon set on another day.  I take a deep breath.  I am blessed.

Today's bad poetry.

Resting-

I dream of a better place

when I am done with my race

not because I cross the finish line

but I've come to know that all is fine.

I need not hurry or compete,

For today, I have all I  need.......I am complete.
