In Others’ Words: Focus

Oh, the days I’ve wished away.

If I had the chance to count up all the hours … the minutes … the seconds … they’d probably spill over the edges of my cupped hands like the sands inside an hourglass.

Gone.

But I’ve enjoyed my days too. Savored the sweetness of times woven through with laughter and yes, even tears wiped away by the gentle touch of a loved one.

Was it one of those “Where on earth did the days go?” kind of weeks for you?

Did you spend Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday just waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting for today?

What did you miss?

Or were you able to be in each minute … And how do you manage that?

In Your Words: Look back over your shoulder: What did you enjoy the most about this week? I’d love to hear about it. Join the conversation! While we’re talking today, I’m enjoying my time up in Estes Park, CO, which is one of my favorite places to be. I’m with my husband and youngest daughter (and our 2 dogs, of course). And I’ve got my camera and a workbook to sketch out the plot of my next novel. I’ll return next week with some new photos and a better idea of where this story is going!
