Birth day(s)

Each day the same.
Yet unexpected.
I walk alone,
birthing friendship with Self, grass, birds, trees, smiles, nods…
Alone, the world holds me.

    So true! I appreciate every little thing I see on my walks……hardly noticed them before.

    I have been doing this kind of thing for years. I am elated to see more people doing it. This kind of presence is what I did when I was a small child and felt held by the world, friends with the bugs and audience to the clouds. I continue to remember the kind words of the teacher in the old movie Karate Kid, ” The sun is shining and the grass is green.

    Unlike what you are saying, I never feel alone in this as I know I am connected to it all.
