the grass is growing! the cherry blossoms are blooming! the allergies are reacting!
SPRING IS IN THE AIR! .... or have you even noticed?
can't say that i haven't....tis my 2nd favorite season after all. but i can definitely see how we can get caught up in the past perhaps.....or our plans for later on.
i distinctly remembering that it was around this time of year last year that i made a conscious decision to try to learn to go with the flow of life. yes, i had to Consciously force myself to begin thinking this way!! crazy, i know. but it's been easy to live with your head in the clouds until the rain starts pelting you in the face, if you understand what i mean.
i had to learn {oh, and you'd better believe it, i'm still learning!} how to live for today. i can't do anything about the past and i have no control of the future. therefore, i must take whatever i'm given now and make the best of it.
i LOVE music....it inspires me. this song totally did that:
Breathe it in and breathe it out
Listen to your heartbeat
There’s a wonder in the here and now
It’s right there in front of you
And I don’t want you to miss
The miracle of the moment
And if it brings you tears
Then taste them as they fall
And let them soften your heart
And if it brings you laughter
Then throw your head back
And let it go, let it go
You gotta let it go
"miracle of the moment" by steven curtis chapman...... this moment, right now is a MIRACLE. hard for me to fathom sometimes.
so get outta here! go sniff some roses or something! ;)

Jen, I totally understand what you're saying here. Sometimes it is so easy to let yourself fall into the past, and not move forward. I still do it sometimes! Hopefully I improve daily...I want to press on towards the mark...
