i drive home
on automatic
and am surprised when I arrive
at my destination

i eat dinner
gratefully
savouring food prepared
by hands not my own

i write this
feeling the warmth of the fire on my back
hearing the splashes and giggles of kids in the bath
surrounded by the chaos created by two busy children
enjoying the luxury of ten precious minutes TO MYSELF
before the chaos swirls about me again
and know that i
am
content

content in this moment
replete, satisfied, pleased beyond measure

i am the
contents
of each moment which moves through me and through which i move
