Me in the white wicker chair, my criss crossed legs. Miracle my black and white cat on my right leg, and my open notebook I’m writing in on my left leg.

I woke up with one sock, one bare foot, filled with gratitude and a feeling of complete connection. Connection to the day, connection to life, connection to love, connection to peace. Connection to being, interbeing.

Miracle and I are on the back porch. She jumps in my lap, and displaces the notebook on my right leg, her tail flicks over the page on the left.

The motion detector light bulb in the lamp turns off, guess we’re too still. I put my hand under its glass shade and click — let there be light.

Let there be light.

My grandmother’s dome light, it has two multicolored socks on it and a bunch of dust.

Let there be light.

"I believe in love.

I believe in the power of

creation.

I believe in the good

vibration.

I believe in love alone, yeah.”
