Dawdle through the shelves adorned
I’m looking for a certain book
Sadly, I remain unwarned
Time has passed without a look
Rarely, do I tend to rest
Around this time, I’m never free
Certain, as the sun does set
The pages grab ahold of me
Instead, I watch the world unfold
Offer them my eyes to see
Noise, to flee reality

Religious Freedom Granted in 1978
What traditions are you most thankful for and why? Rupi Kaur's Gratitude Writing Prompts 1. Enormous Gratitude for the return of religious freedom for American Indians in 1978. The same year I got into recovery. That year I could smudge, go into the sweat lodge, attend full-moon ceremony, pipe ceremony, wiping of tears ceremony, and others.

Dear Ms. Lisa - ~ I always love to slowly "Dawdle" though your jump around chosen topics.
