Being Here

Even though I am leaving for Oregon in 48 hours, and had my last day of full-time work 24 hours ago, I’m working hard on being in the moment today. When I was vacuuming, I was vacuuming. Eating, eating. When I walked out on the piers, I closed my eyes and breathed in the water in the air and relished the river waves lapping up under the docks. When I look out my window, I’m taking in the view. The skyline. I will never cease to be impressed by it.
