May Musings #1

Hello, Citizen.
    Today is Saturday, May 28.  For those of us along the Ohio and middle-upper-Mississippi rivers, the "Great Flood" has come and gone.  Arkansas and Missouri are cleaning up the aftermath.  Mississippi and Louisiana are still dealing with it.  I have no deep insights to add to those which you have probably already seen elsewhere, only this thought...
    When you turn on your sink tap to run water, express your gratitude for it.  Simply address the water itself, the tap, the well or city system tyou are connected to and say "Thank you."
    Did your home 'weather' the winds and storms in good shape?  Are you dry?  Have you electricity for lights and refrigeration?  Ditto with the thankfulness.
    Are you sound and healthy in body and mind?  and your family?  friends?  Ditto with the attitude of gratitude.
    For many of us, May has been a month of changes.  We pray that you have the strength and fortitude of Mind, Body and Spirit to face YOUR changes with clarity, purpose, equanimity and gratitude.

Namaste, Citizen, namaste.
