I smile with gratitude as I reflect on our family summer of 2023 back home in Zambia. It was filled with new adventures, new unions, celebrating my 26-wedding anniversary, great food, laughter, and of course lots and lots of dancing - especially with my children and my brothers. My heart overflows with love and joy because I successfully permitted myself to be open and present in every moment so I could welcome the miracles of each day. Yes miracles! My miracles were the smiles and words of positivity that warmed my heart; sitting for hours admiring the multiple shades of green leaves from the swaying Benjamin trees, which were planted by my late father and are now older than me, with my mother, aunty, and siblings; or being invited to someone's home for a feast with their family. And just before my daughter left for university, we had one more dance to close out the summer break, which demonstrates the joy and love for each other and our supportive and ever-present family.
How was your summer? Whether you travelled or not, reflect on the positive miracles that filled your heart - even the daily moments we all too often take for granted.
