Each day, in the morning, i walk out before walking my dog and raise my arms and hands up to the sky and say thanks for today, here we are! And i try to include everyone i love and know.

It has started to worry my neighbors, but i still do it! Finding The Day in today still matters to me.

“This is the Day that God has made, i will rejoice and be glad in it!” Was my grandmother’s mantra. I still do it.

I’m sure they think i’m doing morning stretches or yoga, but who cares.

Like David dancing half naked before the Ark of Presence, i will continue my morning stretches towards the sky and saying Yes!

Why not?! It seems to make the birds and my homeless friends, who camp nearby happy, if not my neighbors.

Alas, judgement is God’s not mine. So, I’ll keep doing my morning prayers!
