The world is getting faster and faster. With each passing day it seems to be more and more difficult to find a moment
or two to just...be.
How often do we find ourselves in a routine that has become a rut, going through the motions of life itself? How precious
our time is, and yet, there we are at the end of yet another week that has blurred by and a weekend facing us that should
be spent enjoying ourselves but most likely will be used to catch up on all the errands and chores we missed during the week.
Do I have the secret for living life to the fullest? No, but I wish I did. The best I can do is find small, simple ways
to sit down once or twice a day and indulge myself in something wonderful. A cup of spiced coffee and a favorite book to
read to my daughter. Starting up the bread machine and going for a walk just as it starts its baking cycle so we walk into
a home smelling like...a home.
Finding joy in life isn't hard, but the key word there is finding. Finding joy is an action, not some mysterious
event that just falls out of the sky and hits us on the head by accident. Find your own personal joys. It is my hope that
by sharing some of my small joys in life might spur others on to finding their own as well.
