Possibilities

 Possibilities. There’s a word which embodies hope! 

I was thinking over my plans for the day, and I realized how many possibilities there were for me to consider. I want to plan a grocery list for a wonderful fruit salad to share. I get to visit a hospice patient and simply live in the Now with her. I’m going to learn a new computer skill this afternoon. I am able to make a payment on my credit card — and I have a credit card to pay. I have an apartment to tidy, or a movie to watch, or maybe both. I get to greet a sweetheart later and see what develops. 

I have choices in the food I decide to eat today. I have a beautiful and very challenging puzzle to consider starting. I have a kitten to tame (okay, not a real possibility!), and ideas to hatch. The day is wide open.

There is hope in possibility. If I stop seeing what could be, then I remain stuck in my current perception. If that perception is limited, then my opportunities are likewise limited. I don’t want to stunt my growth at any junction. I want to be open to whatever may present itself in this glorious, wonder-filled day.

First, coffee. Now, do I want a latte? Iced or hot? Black? Decisions, decisions! 

I’m so grateful to have choices in my life on this day.
