I thought it would be fun, for end of summer, to share some of your happy moments. I will begin and you add on.
1. Walks on the beach in the evening
2. Jackson Hole hikes to lakes and views of Tetons
3. Being with friends, who had more free time, to deeply share and catch up on NOW WHAT…
4. Braving up to speak on a pilot TV talk show segment
5. A walk with a very special person, in Venice, CA, talking about commitment
6. Seeing blue, August, jelly fish on the sand for the first time with hubby
7. Photographing sunrises
8. Music gathering at a woman’s home and remembering how much I love piano, drums, harmony, guitar, voices
9. Hugging my daughter when she walks in the door to visit
I bet if I were to write this memory next week, there would be more happy memories to visit.
I remember walking the ocean bluffs and meeting a woman, tall, lean, grey-haired, wearing a pink shawl, and maybe 80. She shared with me that she is painting her cards for Xmas already. I asked what they looked like. She said, “Oh that is a surprise for Xmas.” She is a reminder to me that age has nothing to do with finding something that lifts your spirits.
Grateful for easy times and wonderment… Oh, I forgot, early morning, black coffee (dash of cinnamon no cream or sugar) on the patio, smelling the growing cilantro and basil
Enjoy,
Natalie
