New Year’s Eve in Houston was awesome, but it was good to get home today. Waking into my house with the familiar sights and sounds gave me an instant peaceful feeling. Time to wake up tomorrow and begin life in 2011 after being away for 4 days. I look forward to waking up in my bed, making my tea, settling in my rocker for the early show, and getting ready for yoga. I miss my yoga room and my friends I’ve made there. My body is craving the familiar poses. I can’t wait to resume my daily routine after 4 days on planes, in hotels, and partying.
The feeling of home is, indeed, sweet. My second resolution, after putting down parcels to unlock the door (which will teach me to slow down), is to appreciate my home a little bit each day. At some point during the day I will point out something in my home or yard that makes me feel good, and pause and thank God for it. This will teach me the appreciation of the little things in life.
And so, as another day goes by, I’m on my way to a simpler life in 2011, and…I have written.
