Good morning…

“I am going to read a Mary Oliver poem for Thanksgiving as part of our family’s blessing,” she texted.

“Will you take a picture of the poem you choose and share it with me?” I replied. “I will be deeply with you in Spirit.”

Thursday at 8:41 am, I received her inviting selection.

poem

Give in to joy.

Don’t hesitate.

Don’t be afraid of its plenty.

Joy is not meant to be a crumb.

Sometimes something better happens.

Notice joy in the instant when love begins.

Surprisingly, unexpectedly, joy is life’s way of fighting back.

The deepest pains may linger through the night, but joy greets the soul with the smile of morning (Psalm 30:5b, VOICE).
