Once in a while comes a day when life is peaceful and filled with beauty. For example, the Christmas cactus blooms for the second time this winter.
Or you make a couple of batches of strawberry-rhubarb jam.
Or bare branches glow beneath a blue, blue sky.

Simple things such as these make life beautiful. Moreover, they are energizing. After finishing the jam, which made six pints, I picked up the kitchen island, which is the collection point for everything you can think of but mostly papers. I finished the seed order to Shumway's, filled out forms, and generally went on a finish-up-little jobs rampage. I am happy as a clam.
Some people would say that my biorhythms are all in sync today, but I call it "being in the groove." It's when everything moves forward easily. It's when we are most un-selfconscious, most in tune, most alive. It's when small miracles occur and are taken for granted. It's when one is in harmony with the universe, raccoons notwithstanding.
