I Forget to Remember
I forget to remember that nothing is permanent.
I forget to remember how much I enjoy the therapeutic effects of essential oils and minerals.
I forget to remember how beautiful the Driftless Region is.
I forget to remember my gifts as a horsewoman, writer, teacher, friend.
I forget to remember that cayenne pepper makes my ears burn.
I forget to remember to laugh and cry.
I forget to remember to meditate, sweat, write and play everyday.
I forget to remember that consuming too much sugar is a slow death.
I forget to remember the rancid smell of puppy farts and the magical odor of jasmine.
I forget to remember the medicine in music and travel, friends and strangers, animals and nature.
I forget to remember that my body prefers raw, vegetarian foods and lots of pure water.
I forget to remember to embrace winter before the heat and humidity of summer.
I forget to remember that an acorn can only become a mighty oak.
I forget to remember that my barefoot shoes will give me the enthusiasm of a kid again only when I wear them.
I forget to remember the blessings of people I don’t see often enough.
I forget to remember the actual words to that song I love to sing.
I forget to remember that nothing is permanent.
