Small Stone, Day 10


Missed a day yesterday.
No small stone to be had.
I was too busy
with work
with not feeling well
with not slowing down to pay attention.

Yes, I feel bad.
Now, that doesn't mean I didn't write anything yesterday
because I did.
I just don't think it's worthy
of putting out into the universe.

So, yesterday was a lost day.
I have them sometimes.
I'm willing to bet you do, too.

What gave me pause
was that I thought today would be lost, too.
It would be oh so easy to just give up,
to forget this mindful writing challenge,
to stifle myself. Again.

But, I'm going to keep going.
It's all I know how to do.

Still not feeling well
and I'm sitting here freezing.
I thought it was supposed to be warm today...

A fleeting glance at the thermometer
throws me for a loop. 
How odd!
The weatherman was wrong... 
I think I went into the wrong line of work. 

Granted, it's warmer than it has been,
but it's nowhere near what they said it would be.
And the rain is making it feel colder, too.

I'm hoping the forecast is a little closer to reality for tomorrow.
I would enjoy it just a tad warmer.

So that's my extremely small stone for today.
I don't think it sings
but I do detect a low hum about it.

Maybe tomorrow will sing.
I hope.
