Thalia laces her sneakers and hums.
Calliope clips Hen’s leash to her collar and hears the coyotes howl.
“Good for Henrietta —” Nia pops in her AirPods with music to set a tone, “and good — for us.”
Everything is habit-forming, so make sure what you do is what you want to be doing.
~Wilt Chamberlain
A note from LoveLetterist:
I feel joy in lengthening daylight.
Like a mailman who sets out in rain, sleet, and snow... Henrietta and I cap the beginning and end of our days with a neighborhood walk.
I often don't WANT to go.
It's cold, and dark.
The recliner and Netflix allure.
"Wait... we'll be back in 20 minutes," I wink, "Gotta honor myself and Hen first."
Not only do we have habits of doing, we have habits of thinking.
We MUST use our tools, like spoonfuls of sugar, to keep going, keep growing.
Are you provoking me intentionally? Did I ever tell you that I shared a locker with Wilt Chamberlain? I had the lower portion!
