The morning thought

[katriona_s]

Early morning. I wake up, in my futon I can hear my rabbit Krurun munching the dried timothy grass in her cage. I go to the living room to open the shutter of the main window, this wakes our garden cats from their sleep, they start miaowing to demand the breakfast. But my mother, who usually feed them, is still sleeping. She is now 87 and still well, fit for her age. I open other shutters. In our garden now mimosa, narcissus and Yukiyanagi (Spiraea thunbergii) are in full bloom. I look around the rooms full of the memorabilia of my family. The ordinary morning routine. And every day I feel the happiness, feel that how fortunate I am and thank for that.
And this happiness would not last for ever, I know well. So I think, I should, I will fully enjoy this fortunate days as much as I can.

Such mornings are sooooo good! You can see pleasant things, you FEEL pleasant. And wow, you mother - please, give her my best regards, I wish I could be as fit as she is now!
Oh oh, I still regret you have to get rid of that fantastic mimosa!!!

Thanks.
As for mimosa I feel just like you. It’s my fault to plant it on the unsuitable place… :(
