Moments of Newness

It was a nice day: I got to work out, had an enjoyable conversation with a friend on the sunny deck of a restaurant, watched this film at project rebuild & felt moved / inspired by the work & gifts of the student filmmaker & the teachers, went to the park and watched J & A as they fed the ducklings and were chased by the Canadian Geese, Scott & Christina dropped in and we talked and laughed for more than an hour. Was it Henry James who recommended changing at least one habit incrementally every day, just to open yourself up to new experiences (?), because it seems like an idea ripe with life-giving possibilities.
