“Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day
is the rest we take between two deep breaths.”*
This quote from First Sip appeared in my phone email box at just the right moment this afternoon. I was out running errands. My winter coat popped a button. My new haircut didn’t produce the look I wanted. The low fuel symbol on my dash began to flash.
In the midst of those happenings, which I took in stride better than usual, I tried to formulate a post idea in my mind for completing this evening.
Opening up First Sip made me pause as I read about breathing and resting. It soothed my nerves. Then when I didn’t devolve into the disaster place I have in the past, I felt pleasure arising.
How do you handle a series of disappointments?
My wish for readers of exploring the mystery is for a weekend of breathing and resting. Thanks for reading. Nicky Mendenhall
