Burst of Energy

On this crisp fall morning, after my meditation, I decided to put on some Broadway music and glide through the kitchen. By the time I finished, I had made split pea soup in the slow cooker, six sausage biscuits for my husband, and put two loaves of pumpkin bread, gluten-free, in the oven.

All this was interspersed with cleaning the refrigerator, stove-top, appliances, and counters, as well as unloading the dishwasher, emptying the trash, and changing the sheets on the bed.

When I looked at the clock, it was only 10:00.

This burst of energy was so much fun. Where it came from—the weather, my diet, the music, my meditation with friends, God—I don’t know. I do know that I am grateful.

You write it: Have you had a burst of energy lately?
