These thoughts were written from February to July 2021. They include daily experiences from home cloistering and short trips to the West Coast of Northern California. Each day represents a musing slice of my inner and outer life. It gives me pleasure to share with you a silent and hopefully enriching journey together. Please read slowly and let the images cover you with joy.

This book is my second collection of fragments of my daily perceptions put to paper, all exposed to you, the reader. Be kind, in perusing these short and small thoughts from my heart. The aim is to raise us up above the fray of the confusion of our inner world, and to simply enjoy what we see before us--both internally and externally--in the moment. If you like what you read, share it with others. Happy reading, to another beloved speck in the universe.

These small angles of thought were written in May and June of 2022. Spring seems to inspire writing. The process of formulating and composing has helped me to have a stronger focus on what is most important to me. Although not everyone may think these quips wise, here are they humbly presented. Hopefully, open hearts will benefit by reading, and passing them on to others. I do not claim to be able to live up to what is printed here, but I will continue to try.

There are already enough words here, so I will only add that writing about moments helps me to be present to this one. And, this small read is dedicatedto my beloved Teacher, who inspired all herein.
