The Good Life - 03/27/2023 - A pretty good day *

Feeling better today. Resting yesterday helped. There was good, deep diving with the book I’m reading; alone in the sunshine with my dog, a stupidly oversized hat shielding the sun glare. And three long walks: twice with Yumiko and the dogs and once alone along the shoreline, again with my book, head down gazing at the storied pages, with sand and seashells passing in a slow blur below—coming up for air from time-to-time, gaining my bearings by the waves before diving in again above my sauntering feet. A good day. Good passage. Good living and a good use of time.
