So Grateful...still

My Lord,

I simply love that you moved me to North Beach.  I cannot tell you how at home my heart feels there.  #But then again, YOU are GOD and you already knew that.  One of the many, many, many reasons that I heart you!

Yesterday at nightfall when all the work, chores and other stuff came to a quiet end, I heard the waves.  I'd finally stop moving and ahhhhhhhhhh.....there they were....as faithful as you.  It was such a delightful sound, especially once the fridge stop humming...Lol

So there I was lying in bed, listening and quietly rejoicing.  I was truly in the moment.  And you know what happens next...either tears or poetry :-)

WHAT I LOVE

I love that the waves collapse against the shore just outside my window

I love that I can hang my head off the edge of my bed and see all the stars from inside my studio

I love that the dawn changes to morning right before my eyes and I am completely mesmerized each and every time

I love that in the winter months I am alone with my God and no one else can intrude on our sacred union

I love that the onset of summer brings various sights and sounds but then it slowly winds down to a blissful peace at nightfall

I love that the birds fly high around and around like puppets on a string, only you can't see the string...so cool to watch

I love that the ice cream cones, funnel cakes and kettle corn are all within walking distance

I love that I can go barefoot all day long and go unnoticed within the crowd, both locals and tourists

I love that my address includes both my birthday, my son's birthday and one of my all time favorite words

If you haven't guessed it already I simply love, love, love being a resident of North Beach

Eternally yours
