I thought long and hard on this...
So many things we tell ourselves we will do. So many good things, so many "shoulds", so many" if only's"...
It is the things that will bless us And bless our loved ones that will matter in the long run.
And the funny thing, as we start down the road to enjoying what we do,
in the moment... Our lives become better, and the lives of those we love
become better.
I believe in you.
One step at a time, and Keep on Stepping... Until you Dance to the rhythm, and the days become Better.
I struggle too. I have my "shoulds", hmmn, I should exercise more, or
ride my bike more, I should have a lovely clean living room with no mess
(Ha! Teenagers at my house!), I should have saved more, or done more, or
do more.....
And I was miserable when the "shoulds" ran my life. And my family was pretty miserable, too.
And one day, I stopped wearing the dark colors, you know the "should if you are well rounded" colors... And picked out the Red.
And guess what? I feel Joyous in Red!
I stopped fretting about the "shoulds" that a person with no inner
clock will ever get... And Accepted myself. And my family just stepped
up and tracked the things they were actually responsible for. OK, that
one didn't happen overnight, hehe.
I stopped worrying about my
diet, and just started eating well. Smaller, frequent meals, And Yes,
that includes my chocolate! And I lost over 65 pounds without trying.
And I stopped being hungry 24/7. That didn't happen overnight, but it
was faster than any "diet" I had ever been on before.
Why did I do these things? I wanted to be Happy. I wanted the Joy back. And I found it.
I didn't decide it all in one day. It evolved. And if you are reading this, you, too, want to be Joyful.
Don't Wait to Start
Enjoying Your Life!
Once you start
seeing the difference
You will
Keep On Going!
Start the Joy Today! Now!
