Really think about a day when maybe you were down and had too much work to get through. Then you are checking out at a counter and the sales clerk says, "Enjoy your day!" Do you pay attention to it? Are you numb to it? Do you think...even though I am having a rotten day I really need to find something wonderful to like about it? Maybe you don't, but I do!
Recently I took a trip by myself! No kids and no responsibilities really for me. I visited some friends and family and really just got to be me. But on the way to some dive to visit with my dear friend I got stuck in really, really rotten traffic. So instead of a ten to fifteen minute hop over the hills....it took me a hour and ten minutes! Crazy traffic. At first I was a little frustrated, but then I realized...look at all those colors on the leaves. Look at that sunset! How fortunate to have that moment to enjoy.
If you pay attention to this little word it can really make a difference. To feel joy is such a fabulous feeling. And it's filled with love and caring. I can't think of another word that I love more that means the same. Or another feeling I would want to give to someone else to brighten their world.
LOVE is a great word, but honestly over used to the point that we don't hear it. Have we lost our senses in this overly busy, overly computed and overly crazy world? Think about it. How many of you go about your day schlepping through life and not finding one positive moment? Maybe we are not paying attention.
So, wake up and think about what makes you happy. Find JOY in your life. Find something to ENJOY while you do something maybe that is difficult. It could help you along you know.
Just something I was pondering and wanted to share with you. I have so many projects to catch up on writing about. I can't wait to share my JOY of what I do with you! I better get on that asap!
ENJOY your life!
