Three things were really special about today.
Today I spent the entire day painting for people I love-just
because I love them. Do you know how
good it feels to do something totally out of love-regardless that the work was
hard, the day long, and my neck and shoulder muscles ache. I am happy, happy , happy.
Today I learned an important thing about the use of
breath: How to use breath to focus and
refine movement. I was given the job of
edging up against the baseboards and the ceilings. I found if I used my out-breath with the
movement of the brush, my paint lines were smooth and even. Nice to be able to do a good job painting.
Even better to have new knowledge for working with the breath.
AND today I can
hold the paintbrush with a steady hand. The joy of having steady hands again is nearly
overwhelming. Perhaps I’m a little
melodramatic, but I have so much gratitude for this gift. Steady hands, steady life. This, the result of integrity, commitment, discipline
and God.
Truly a day for gratitude.
