Day Two Hundred and Seventy eight

My jaw is stiff and that makes my ear hurt, and that worries me, pulls in all the available history of ear problems in an attempt to prevent injury that is as misaligned as those parts of my face. That leads me to consider a host of other problems, due maybe to being already worried and having other worries fit right in. I've forgotten how much beauty and kindness are in my life. I think of all of those lines, and they are soft and vibrant and full of openness. For a time they replace the worries in my face, though it remains stiff. I move in a more open direction, practice gratitude of this one precious life.
