Kindness, gentleness...and sweet hot cocoa!

Last night, for a sweet moment, I found  peace....I found a gentle joy....a moment of sweet simple joy!

Emotionally have been through the wringer for many many months. It has left me exhausted and teary.

Last night a voice in my head whispered, "bed early tonight Snowie, check in with your HP before bed, say 'STOP' every time a worrying thought enters your head and take care of YOU".

So!! Off I toddled early to bed and lay in the cosy comfort of my electric blanket, listening to some soothing chat on the radio, and a voice then said to me "a mug of hot cocoa!".  Oh! OK! Listening to that voice I arose and made myself a lovely mug of hot cocoa and once again toddled off to bed!

For the first time in a long long time, I felt I was treating inner Snowie kindly and gently. Really taking care of her.   I have not done that in a long time....well, not without feeling guilty about it anyway!

It felt it good. It felt loving.

It was simple. It was sweet!

Must do it more!

Blessings!
