Some of those moments were seen in her ability to randomly say three, four and five word sentences. Some of those moments happened when she let go of the couch and walked across the living room as though this was an everyday occurrence. One of the especially heart stealing moments was when she grabbed my face, gave me a kiss and then hugged me while saying "wuv eww".
Yes, this life with Cora continues to offer many opportunities to slow down, relax and just take a breath. A lesson that I am aware of, but usually the first one to forget. Full of energy and with a mind that seems to be always be thinking of ways to make things work better I often need that reminder to slow down.
I continue to be blessed with Cora's ability to teach me more life lessons. Even then I don't know if she is teaching me them or merely adding to what I know and just haven't put into practice. Either way, I prefer to see the glass partially full and will continue to give the sermon that Cora has taught me many life lessons.
Were you able to slow down this week and have moment where you sipped your coffee and enjoyed the simplicity of the moment? Were you comfortable in the quietness that enveloped you in that moment or did it make you uneasy?
Take time for yourself and just breathe. Take a moment to slow down and listen to what your heart whispers. You could very well be rewarded with a heart fell whisper that says "wuv eww"
