Good morning,
Sometimes we take ourselves so seriously and forget that life is not a game of endurance rather then being alive, really alive, living and laughing.
Part of what I learned in early sobriety, which by the way I still do it, is to laugh at myself, not as often as I would like, and find things that make me laugh like my doggies.
However there are still those times, when I get all wrapped up in the issues of life rather the joys of life.
We work the steps to figure out the what’s and why’s of our lives. There are times when I find myself getting wrapped up in the seriousness of living life as a mature adult instead of letting that little girl inside of me out to play and be a being with a big and beautiful light.
Last night I saw a double rainbow; it was so very vivid and beautiful; that is what I want to be and alive like, a beautiful vivid strobe light, flashing and flickering about. Doesn’t that sound wonderful. Life doesn’t need to be so serious. Today I look for things to laugh about and just be thankful to be alive, forgetting the adulting part of life. Today I will strive to be that light hearted girl/woman I am meant to be, enjoying and shining my strobe light all over the place.
This morning I am grateful for my beautiful porch where I can sit and enjoy my birds and the beautiful songs they sing, which lures my mind and body into to a peaceful and very content place of joy. I feel so relaxed sitting out here in my rocker and just being. I have my blanket wrapped around me and just a rocking away my troubles and thinking about my upcoming trip to see my family. I must wait some weeks, but it will be here before I know it. I am making plans and intend to follow through, being lighthearted and fun.
I am thankful I get to play tennis this morning l, which I need to get moving to get there in time. Have a beautiful day and let that light inside shine like a strobe light.
Living Me
