Be Happy. Believe. You should be Happy. Life is Beautiful. BeautyFULL.
I'm 32 - nearly. My situation on Earth is quite sunny at the moment. Lovely daughter, loving husband, comfortable existence, close friends and family. You could say I'm a well being surrounded by other well beings - but my well being doesn't always reflect that. I can be a real Oscar (the Grouch, that is). I can't pinpoint when I bought into my timeshare in the trash can, but my silly side is lately classifiable as something no silly side should ever be; illusive.
Grumpy About Being a Grump. Consider. It's All Bigger than You.
I've begun to realize that I too easily get stuck in my own story; too lost in the weeds of my own personal drama. I've prescribed myself with the panacea of paying attention; recording simple reminders to help me expand beyond myself and my mental ruminating and to notice what we all have been given. This is the genesis of my blog "Brief & BeautyFull." It's purpose is to help me stop and notice and smile. If it helps you do the same, well that will help me in return.
Even the longest human life is a blink, a heartbeat, an inhalation. Some of us believe we should be serious; head-down, forward-moving. Some of us ask why do we trouble ourselves - for what end? We hang in a delicate balance - afloat on Earth, adrift in the vast sea of the universe. We are fragile, and things are definitely, undeniably out of our control. We all recognize this on some level, which is probably why we cling so to the things within our control.
Choice. It's in your Control. We can be afraid and anxious and checking things off an endless list... or we can enjoy the life we've been given - looking to each day for sources of joy and fullness in our soul.
Welcome to a Brief & BeautyFull Life.
After a long winter my first proof of a life meant to be enjoyed is simply the grass is green.
