"I'm concentrating on staying healthy, having peace, being happy, remembering what is important, taking in nature and animals, spending time reading, trying to understand the universe, where science and the spiritual meet."
~ Joan Jett
Me too, Joan.
Welcome to June, dear friends. The start of a new season is near.
What are you focused on at this time? During these times?
It's a restart time for me. I'm intending to choose wisely and lovingly so that I experience well-being, good health, peace, hope, love, joy...the

I want to live the things my soul strives for, my highest ideals. For sure I am not there yet.
I think that deep down we all want that.
Thank you for walking this path with me. I like that you join me on the same trail for a part of each day. I always appreciate your
company.
