mindful

My coffee and and cream this morning made me wakeful but not mindful.

Pausing to appreciate the joy of friends like Ashley, the beauty of this campus, and the bright future of all the shining young faces streaming to and from their classes was an exercise in mindfulness.

Did you admire the clouds yesterday? Has a tree blessed you with its shade this summer? Have you thanked a friend for joining you at a meal?

Tomorrow I will let my coffee serve as a reminder to be mindful.
