Lull of Life

Ever so often in life there is a lull that suspends time. During that lull one can feel as if the world has abandoned their time. No matter, what one tries to do to allow that time to start spinning again...it doesn't...and will not until the lull that has suspended that time has passed by.

A lull can last, to what could seem to be forever...but really in perspective is a lull in a fragment of a whole lot of time. It's how the lull of life is approached that makes the duration of the lull to start spinning again.

May the lull in this life...start to spin...time that was frozen is no longer...nor does it even matter. I want the spinning in this moment to carry the lulls of life forever. Though the spinning cycles of happiness wear away...it is the joy in between the lulls that allows the heart to continue spinning.

As one spins...may the joy illuminate from within...and allow the lull of life to shine beauty.

Full Circle

In the past several days, I have realized that I want to have genuine happiness to surround me at all times. In this world, that isn't always possible...but lately, I have found that happiness is what we create. Happiness is driven from our attitudes, perspective, and most of all our joy. Genuine happiness permeates from the soul and is contagious. It allows one's spirit to fill a room with laughter and smiles.

I am so thankful, for the joy and happiness that I have seen in recent months. I don't know if it the warm weather in the air and the fact that I can put on a pair of flip flops, and enjoy the gentle breeze upon my face, sends this notion of happiness...but I am glad that joy surrounds me. All I know is that my spirit is dancing...and though not everyday is perfectly filled with delight...the joy seen in others makes me simply smile.

So even when the rain is pouring down and the rainbow is far from being in sight...allowing my heart to feel happy is important. For walking through the storm allows the rainbow to make me smile even more. I would much rather keep it simple in this life and find the happiness within my soul through the fire. No one desires to walk a hard road, nor do they expect life to always be happy, but finding the joy in life, allows one to fully embrace the happiness within their soul.

I am so thankful, to have come full circle...this journey...of life, love and lattes has been one challenging road. Life will forever keep going, never stopping. Love, will forever spring my joy and allow my heart to feel free. Latte moments, are substituted for now, but still allow my spirit to captivate my joy.
