The Good Trigger


Today, focus on the good triggers in your life. Focus on those moments that remind you in detail of the good people or times or habits from where you have come from, and that have made you the good person you are today.  If you so desire, share your "Good Trigger" story below.


The Good Trigger

There is a smell
Drifting through the house
It is yeast, it is butter, it is bread
And there is a very soft hum of a hymnal song
That echoes off the family photos
With faces lining the hallway wall
All looking toward the light in the kitchen
All looking just a little hungry
Grandma looks out the window
Her back facing as she piddles in the sink
And she turns her head to look and smile
And says "YOO HOOO NATE!… sit down and eat!"
I whistle back to her from my heart.

There is a smell
Passing the bakery department
At the local grocery store
Where I get to visit with Grandma again.

This is my Journey
