Loved the thoughts. I am a poor sleeper and wake and doze all night. I will give your thoughts on prayer a try tonight. I usually try to count backward while breathing slowly. Fortunately my cats are not fussy about my sleep habits as long as I stay still and don’t disturb them. Donated blood at St. Luke in Ft. Thomas yesterday and smiled as I walked past the chapel. No yogis in there then.

Beautiful pictures as always. Scout was looking radiant.

I read somewhere to count backwards from 500 by 7s. It works pretty well for me.

My latest insomnia trick is an alphabet game where I pick a category and have to come up with something for each letter. So American cities would be Albuquerque, Baltimore, Chicago…

Thanks for the mention! I'm so glad my post (and mostly Henri Nouwen's words) resonated with you!

The fall colors are so done in Colorado, but we still caught some! Now we're leaf peeping in Tennessee so here's to hoping 🤞🏻

You need to get to Acadia in Autumn sometime. Never seen more beautiful fall colors than there last year.
