Do we have anything in common?
How do I sum up myself in one paragraph?
I am way more complicated than that!
I couldn't do it in one book!
​
Here is my attempt at guessing what we might have in common.
​
I love;
Family, they mean everything to me. I might over do this a bit, and need a little push back to get me in my own space and proper territory. I am learning!
​
Nature, Give me the ocean and a beach to walk along, feeling the gentle waves come and go as my feet sink into the filtering sand. Give me a forest covered mountain, to walk along a trail and slip into a clear crackling brook for a sip of water or again, getting my feet wet.. Give me the sound of the birds chirping and a howl at the moon, the crickets calling and the firefly twinkling. The smell of a flower or a fresh cut lawn, the air after rain, or the storm raging on. Lightning and thunder yes I love it all. You might think that sounds like I am on trails and outdoor adventures, but I am not really. I am too fond of tidy and clean. But I love nature.
I don't spend enough time here, and I am learning to. Finding moments each day to be with nature even if it's only for a few minutes, to step into the grass, or feel the hot pavement underfoot. I am taking moments to feel the sun on my face daily. If I get a whole afternoon, or a weekend I celebrate!
Friends, Oh how we need each other. It is a huge blessing to have the friends I have and to make new friends. My life is richer in every way because of my friends.
People, in general. It is in my hardwiring, I am fascinated by our uniqueness and commonality. I love that everyone is different and has a different story to tell. I learn something about life from each person I interact with and I strive to be grateful to be touched by each soul I meet.
Food, I can't forget food! All sorts of food, eating out dining in, fast and from a truck. Cooking and being served. Ya, I love it all!
God, I love God! I save the most meaningful for last. I am not ashamed, He is the central focus of my life. He is my source of love and light, and that it what I seek to spread everywhere I go. It's ok if you don't know or don't believe. He knows you! You might call him by a different name, a higher power, or the universe. But I know firmly there is a power greater than us from which we all were created along with the world and universe we occupy. This is my guide.
