Ordinary Days

What makes an ordinary day? Your alarm goes off, the coffee maker starts and your house slowly wakes to a new day? Or...is it the people in your sleepy home being there with you or those you will see in short order as you head off to work, retirement activities or school?

If the routines and people you count on every day weren't there..would
it be so ordinary after all? Perhaps the not nearly as special as these
days we take for granted, when all is right with our tiny individual
worlds...just as we expect and those we care about to be.

Many who come for counseling yearn for these ordinary days...when life
doesn't throw curve balls so much or people are there for them to
feel loved and to depend on. Some others yearn for "drama" to ease the pain or dullness of their daily existance.

So if you start days you want & expect them to be each morning....be mindful that they are perhaps "extraordinary" after all. Enjoy that you have your routines, your loved ones and the activities what make your life your own!
