It's days like this that I realize how blessed I really am. It's so easy to focus on what is wrong, what I don't have or issues we are dealing with, but today I just felt better.
My son & I spent about a hour playing outside under skies so blue I felt I could sink into them...the sun danced across our skin as we played in the green grass. My son was so excited about little things. Pointing out all the flowers, collecting leaves, counting trucks going by. . .& it opened my eyes. We can find joy in anything if we look hard enough, if we look through the eyes of a child.
Yes life is hard, but I don't need to focus on that all the time. I can find joy in everything. I can dance under the sky, laugh at the sun. . I can find peace deep inside. How ironic it took a 2 year old boy to show me that
"i want to spend the rest of my life ALIVE" switchfoot
