Member-only story
I have Lucy King to thank for leading me to ponder all The Gifts I have in My Day-To-Day travels which contribute to the many Perfect Days The Universe and I cobble together. But more than that — A Perfect Day is also devoid of all the dramas which are the undoing of days with Perfect Day potential.
As with all of Life — it’s about The Balance. Yin/Yang.
The recipe of My Perfect Day is a two-fold process. It includes some of The Gifts which bring me Joy — sprinkled generously throughout and excludes the distraction of The Trials which compel me into Chaos and pull me from Peace.
For me — My Perfect Day would pull from The Joy List:
Time with Loved Ones — in person or on FaceTime
Long moments of silence and reflection — freedom to pursue whatever activity strikes my fancy or whim — to write, practice yoga, or sit in meditation.
A perfect cup of tea, a pot of hot coffee, or a bit of tequila — chilled with an orange — to savor looking over the ocean or curled up in front of my fire — season dependent.
Free Time in my Zen Den, a good book in my hand — feeling, smelling, nearly tasting — the experience as I’m pulled into the story and leave my own Reality behind.
A walk. In The Woods, next to The Ocean. Up a Mountain Trail. Anywhere outdoors…
