My morning routine involves letting the ferrets out to play while I sit and watch them. This is a very calming routine for me and even though it involves cleaning up after them when they get put away, making this time for them and myself in the morning really helps to set the tone for my day. If I don’t get it, usually because I’ve gotten up late, then my day tends to start out with me feeling rushed and hectic. I’m grateful for the days I allow myself this form of calming meditation.
I picked up a package today from the post office. I like the packages I get from India. Covered in cloth, seams are stitched and sealed with wax, reminiscent of a time long past. Plus, shiny things are found inside!
