So far this year, I&#8217;ve been traveling almost weekly.  Not to mention doing some home projects and finishing up a few important things.  <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Saturday morning, after a great nights sleep, in my &#8216;new&#8217; bedroom; I realized I had the chance to do whatever I pleased.  Of course, I had made plans to take a nice hike in one of my favorite spots.  It helped that the sun was shining but was still chilly from the last few transition days into Spring.  I had my favorite coffee (a recent gift from a beloved friend), had the chance to meditate. And was ready to enjoy the day!  <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The truth is, sometimes life moves fast, or even slow but at a pace where we can&#8217;t necessarily enjoy.  Especially if there are just things we MUST get done.  As life moves on, I find this more and more. Therefore, I was inspired to make a video to encourage you, my audience to try and make today a perfect day.  Even if you carve out 2 literal minutes to meditate, do something today to make it a bit sweeter.  <\/p>\n<p>You may remember&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brighteyedsmiles.com\/index.php\/2021\/03\/04\/the-perfect-day-this-or-that\/\" target=\"_blank\">my post from just over a year ago on this topic<\/a>.&nbsp; It has a different flavor and a THIS OR THAT!<br><\/p>\n<p><br><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/youtu.be\/MpuH4ir8pOY\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can today be the perfect day?!
