Some Observations For Today
{not for blogging, just for me}
- No matter how down I feel I can still be awakened, warmed, heartened by things I see in nature - new growth on a plant, a bird in flight.
- True happiness does not always seem an impossibility
- I long for a sense of peace but perhaps need to redefine the notion
- My cats fill my soul with peace, joy, happiness and love
- Louise is the best friend I could ever wish for
- I can't understand the need or purpose for blogging
*********************************************************
How that last point makes me laugh. It was true at the time though. I just didn't get blogging. But yet, somehow, I knew that I so desperately wanted to be a part of it.
Tomorrow marks my two year blogiversary. What a journey I've taken since my first doubtful post.
My observations for today
{for the blog, not just for me} - I dig birds and trees
- I am more at peace and closer to being truly happy than I have been in a very long time
- BigCat and little cat you make my heart sing
- Ms L is always the best friend I could ever wish for
- Blogging has brought me true friendship, community, trust, joy, belief, hope, creativity, opportunity, confidence and warmth
- Blogging gives my life meaning and purpose
I am so grateful that blogging found me. I am so thankful for all of you who have joined me on this journey. I am so eager to see what the next 12 months of blogging will bring.
