I love what Kathie said. I agree wholeheartedly!

Savor…first comment being Canadian is more a kneejerk reflex of “where’s the ‘u’?” as in savour!

The serious comment would have to do with savoring every minute. As we grow older we tend to think more of what we’ve missed or what we coulda, shoulds, might have done and I think that negates all we have done and will yet do by taking us away from savoring the moment now.

The best memories happen when we are savoring the moment. I suppose by extension the worst ones remain that way too, but considering all we learn (or hopefully learn) from those times maybe not a bad thing?

Savor means using all our senses..associating all the sound, sight, smells, touches with what is happening.

Making it real, embracing it all. An affirmation I use speaks to this notion:

I live in the present moment by being grateful for all my life experiences, as a child.

Another I particularly want to savor today is:

As a child of God I am an infinite being, the age of my body has no bearing on what I do or who I am.

Probably not what you had in mind for this word, but that’s the whole point, right?

Not Necessarily Its Indended Use

I posted an entry for “evening” here.

Thanks, Ducky, for letting me borrow your blog page for this. (I’m still trying to decide if I’m really going to blog myself or not.)

Your week words have inspired me to think of something to write, so maybe I will!

Comment on #61: Begin by Sideon

Sideon — Fri, 23 Mar 2007 10:05:33 -0500

So wonderful to see Weekly Anamnesis back in action! I sent off an email asking a few questions, but I got off my lazy butt and started reading the prior posts.

The new site looks wonderful.

I’ll add this site back to my blog roll.

I’m so jazzed that this is back!
