Awakening Barefoot and Interbeing Love

And the warmth of this Nowism

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.

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.”

“Money Can’t Buy It” the song plays. Annie Lennox reminds me as the vibrations enter my headphones. I mean, like she says, "she’s a rich white girl" she seems to know.

My hand writing gets sloppy, which will make the google lens harder to pick up letters.

That’s because my armrest is Miracle.

Totally worth it!

It’s warm out here today. The sun has yet to rise. The world still dreams around me in this early morning.

My one bare foot and one socked foot crisscrossed in my white wicker chair. And I am filled with love and music and hope and, soon-to-be-more iced coffee.
