Pink Heart (Bubblegum on Concrete, Approx. 12″X12″)
I am not sure how much longer it would have taken me to notice this little bit of street art if we had not been sent out of the building for a fire alarm. We knew it was not a drill because the Secretary was to be offering cookies and photo opps next to the “holiday” tree — the one that looks just like the trees the Christians coopted from the pagans — and having everyone exit the building would interfere with those plans. Me, I am not particularly interested in desserts before lunch, and I already have a photo of me with the Secretary. I had time to grab my hat and coat, so I am enjoying the enforced break. The theory–since the fire department sent only one truck, and they let us start returning almost as soon as we evacuated, is that they burned a batch of the cookies for the party. Maybe this is an appropriate moment for the phrase “it’s all good.”
Flowers Around Town (Anemone in a Tree Box)
In the presence of the grand, such as the cherry trees in full bloom, it is easy to overlook the small things.
I am entranced by the small garden offerings, the loving care and desire for beauty manifested by the plantings of perhaps even a flower or two when all someone has is a couple of square feet of sidewalk space to plant.
So too with our human gifts. How essential to happiness and connection it is to recognize the gifts and contributions to love and community by those who are not extraordinary, not the powerful or the famous.

Sadhana
I did not go to the women’s march. I was attending the first day of the second weekend of a two-weekend yoga teacher training for those recently post-trauma.
I did meet others on their way with a good reminder about power.
