The Gift
This is the gift - to have the wonderful capacity
to appreciate again and again,
to appreciate again and again,
freshly and naively,
the basic good of life, with awe, pleasure,
wonder, and even ecstasy.
the basic good of life, with awe, pleasure,
wonder, and even ecstasy.
- Abraham Maslow
Sometimes it is so pure to - without reservation - put your hands up in the air and welcome all the basic goodness that is there for you - right there - ready for you to simply welcome it in...

Sunrise or sunset? No matter - the image of welcome - to a new day, or to the end of a full day of recognizing, as you say, ALL the good-ness, AND taking it all in. I love the embrace! Betsy
