Yesterday, I stayed in my pjs all day. I started a bird puzzle that I'm really enjoying. I took a nap mid-day. I listened to my playlist. I surfed the internet. I wrote. And then I went to bed early and slept quite well. It was exactly what I needed.
And then this morning, I showered, dressed, enjoyed a leisurely morning before I headed to church. I sat next to a wonderful woman in a completely packed contemporary service that I rarely attend and sang the lyrics from my favorite choir song to a new tune as I took in the energy in the room. The sermon on the topic of the prodigal parent (different perspective of the parable on the prodigal son) was moving and reminded me of the love I have received from my parents. So when I got home I called them and told them about it.
And then I walked in the southern sun through my favorite park to the grocery store to get some real food back in my fridge and bought myself flowers (a vibrant pink rose, pink carnation, and a variety of white flowers to go with it).
I think this is what it looks like to truly pour into me and it feels really good.
