Never grow tired of sunrises
or frost on windows
or talking to children.
Drink ginger tea
because a friend told you to—
only leave the tea bag in the cup,
just leave it
and let it all turn spicy and rich
and drink that goodness all day—
long after the cup itself is empty.
Enjoy the silence.
Enjoy the noise.
Learn how to seek out
both, and when.
Remember that these three things
are braided through it all:
love,
mystery,
grace.
Follow those strands through,
trace their path
with your fingertip.
Breathe deep.
