Day 3597: How things are going to turn out

As much as I try to appreciate and dwell in the precious current moment, it’s hard not to wonder and worry about how things are going to turn out.

When focusing on how things are going to turn out interferes with my ability to appreciate the present, I redirect my attention, over and over again, to being here, now.

Nevertheless, I do wonder how things are going to turn out today, tomorrow, and on Election Day this Tuesday. I worry about how things are going to turn out for my son Aaron and future generations. I hope Americans turn out in record numbers to vote this time.

I don’t know how the future will turn out, but I do know how things turned out yesterday for me, because I

  • got my hair cut by the fabulous Mia,
  • went for a beautiful walk with my beautiful friend Barbara,
  • spent time with other humans and cats I love,
  • had delicious food, and
  • made some final decisions about the repair work to our home.

Let’s see how this blog post turns out, shall we?

It turns out I found this on YouTube when I searched for “how things are going to turn out saxophone.”

Thanks to all who helped me turn out another daily blog post, including YOU!!!!

Day 3593: Tranquility

In the week before the U.S. midterm elections, I am searching for tranquility.

Can you find tranquility in my images for today?

I’m very aware of stress on National Stress Awareness Day, so I’m going to search for “tranquility” on YouTube.

Ahmad Jamal’s music has given me tranquility and much more over the years, so thanks to him and everyone else who helped me create this Tranquility post, including YOU.

Day 3567: It’s another one of those days

It’s another one of those days when I

  • miss my late parents,
  • do my best to stay healthy,
  • provide individual and group therapy remotely,
  • can’t imagine our upstairs bathroom ever getting completely fixed,
  • worry about the midterm elections,
  • cheer myself up by thinking about those I love,
  • connect with others,
  • try to stay in the moment,
  • drink Yogi tea,
  • am amazed at how many National Days there are,
  • blog first thing in the morning,
  • tweet at least twice, and
  • share all the images I’ve collected from the day before.

It’s another one of those days when I’ll smile, be aware of body language, and look for inner beauty.

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “it’s another one of those days.”

It’s another one of those days when I end a blog post with gratitude for YOU.
