I have a lot of meaningful things that I want to say about this past week of my life spent gathering with likeminded and hearted women from all over and also about my experience at the Idea Camp. My friend Sarah Markley said those things well…so since my words are short now, read hers HERE.
I have pneumonia. And as my wise friend Katie said the other day…”Ain’t nobody got time for that!”
Amen sister…Amen.
With the Allume Conference coming up in less than a month, and week that I pretty much took off last week to be present in my surroundings with the people in my face, I have stuff to do. And ain’t nobody got time for pneumonia.
But I do have time for an ode…this will be my first ode ever, so if it’s awful…that is why. Some things just deserve odes…like soup, and the friends who bring it when you’re sick. It’s just something I have to do…this ode. And my pneumonia medicines make me feel a little loopy, so here goes.
Oh Soup
You really are for the soul.
With warmth and care and nourishment
You bring healing with each spoonful.
And friends who make soup…
You are balm
Your soup is expression of love made edible
Provision
Care
Sacrifice
Hospitality of the Biblical kind
I am overwhelmed by bowlfulls of love
How I love this! Let me count the ways. I can’t believe you actually wrote an ode to soup. Ok, I can believe it actually.Hospitality of the Biblical Kind. Yes and amen.
I love that you love that I wrote an ode to soup! 🙂
LOL!! I shook my head when I saw this. Only Alia and Logan could cook up this kind of post (get it, cook up) ahem, well, feel better. Lovely ode! 🙂
Ha!!!! I am giggling over this. Love you friend. So glad those veggies were balm.
This is super cute! I hope you are feeling better!
Love soup. Hate that you’re sick.
But I’ve got to tell you . . . This sentence changed my day:
to be present in my surroundings with the people in my face
I needed to be reminded of this because how quickly I forget in all the busy that is my life. Good things, mind you, but they make for a mom and wife who gets lost in the world.
Thanks for sharing!!
