June is a new month
One where I can slow down, breathe, and notice
Undulating thoughts that have been swirling in my mind
Recognize what they are and contemplate what they mean
Now and forever in my life
Allowing me the space to see what most matters to me
Leaving my mind open to form new interpretations
Imagining the life I truly wish to live
Now that I see my mortality waving on the horizon
Giving me clear motivation to strip away the non-essential and focus on now

I love June! Touching words!
Thank you. I love June too!
We get lucky if we have the time, health and financial security to “focus on now”. I wish that for you and to enjoy June!
