the extraordinary comfort of an ordinary day

Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure that you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you  depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. - Mary Jean Irion

How is it that each day is so precious and that we forget that so often and so easily?

The last time I looked at their beads, my favorite was the citrine, which was not in stock. I might have to wander back.

I am always writing down quotes from your blog - you find the best ones.

I found you through FB and thought this picture was just perfect. So, I clicked and I love this site. Great job. I got a kiwi jasper mala from tiny devotions. I was having a rough year: lost both of my dogs, my mom had a mastectomy and I had a molar pregnancy. These malas are part of the reason I've made it through. If you ever have time check out www.inspirehealth16.wordpress.com
I will checking here very often. Beautiful, you seem amazing!

I have those exact same mala beads - I pored over the Tiny Devotions website and those were the ones I chose. I write incessantly about the ordinary days and the gorgeousness they contain. I love your site! xox
