I keep starting blog entries and then I keep stopping.
It may be that my blogging days are over. It may just be that they are on sabbatical.
I'm not going to stress about it.
I will always be happy to have this record of all the things I felt and did over a three year period and maybe someday I'll have more to add.
For now I just wanted to say that lately I have felt joy. Not just happy--joyful. I hope I can continue to rejoice about the good things in my life and overcome the bad.
My joy stems from many things, big and little, but here are a few...
-Some time spent in April with my nephew, sister and brother-in-law.
-A reunion with some best friends. {I say reunion even though it was the first time several of us were meeting, because our spirits met long ago.}
We saw "The Hunger Games." And read quality literature. And watched "Little Manhattan." And ate a lot. And really appreciated Ted. And decided to be best friends forever...still.
-The weather.
I know I have at least a mild case of SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) but the contrast between the hard winter I went through and this blooming Spring has made it more evident than ever. Things are really looking up for me and the season definitely has something to do with it.
My roommates and I bought porch chairs and some pretty lanterns for tea lights and some twinkle lights and now spending an evening on the balcony with a cup of tea is one of my favorite pastimes. I just need to be outside, guys.
-Essie nail polish. I have an actual problem. I think at my last count I own 12 bottles.
-Fellowship with my Bible Study group. They have helped me a lot the past few months.
-Re-learning my independence and confidence. Seeking to be the girl I was in
Palma de Mallorca again.
-New adventures.
I think there are some positive changes coming my way. We shall see! For now I am enjoying feeling light and optimistic.
Happy May.
:)
