Everyone is trying to accomplish something big...
and not realizing that "LIFE"
is made up of an array of little things.
I'm so excited! 2015 is here, and with it
365 different possibilities!
I was laying in bed last night and had a flashback of the time in kindergarten where we "flitted" to the
Dance of the Bumblebee!
I was in kindergarten, and it was magic.
The spell was of course was the tutu, the giggling of all the
little ones, the lighting, and the dizzy sounds we were dancing to!
A friend is someone who understands your past,
believes in your future...
and accepts you just the way you are.
I don't know why I never danced again.
I am sad, that I never offered that experience to my own little girls.
They say, that hindsight is truly 20/20.
I know that money was a concern...there was never enough
to go around for "extras".
But that should not have been an excuse.
If there is a will...
you will always find a way!
I have watched my sweet daughter in law
make life happen, for her little Ruby.
Exposing her to so many experiences.
Tutu's, ice skating, mermaid costumes, play dates,
pre-school.
The second hand store is their favorite place to go.
She finds everything she needs, wants
desires...and her little darling is
happy!
The secret of genius
is to carry the spirit of the child
into your old age,
which means never losing your enthusiasm!
I have found other areas, to keep my heart young!
I surround myself, at every opportunity to
work with, teach and mentor children.
And I am the one who comes away with the memories...
the laughs, the brutal honesty,
the quick hugs and forgiveness, the paint smears,
occasional tears, the color of life!
***
I have found that YOU, are the magic.
Whatever you deem worthy of your time, hang onto it.
Work at your craft, pour your soul into it,
until it becomes what you visioned.
Make a plan.
Work your plan.
Expect to be~
Those who don't believe in magic...
will never find it.
2015...
365
Possibilities!
Love this, Jamie! Thanks for the reminder.
