Keep it Simple



When you realize that you really don't need much to be happy, life becomes so much simpler:), less stressful, more peaceful.  
Every day I can find something to be grateful for; especially a hug.  Oh sure there have been times I wanted more of this or more of that but it happens so infrequently now.  I find enjoyment in so many simple things; the sunshine, digging in the earth, a walk....
Even in a rainy day for example ( which were never my favourite ;)) I am grateful for the time indoors to tidy up my house lol
I  work part time at the moment but this gives me time to pursue other interests and areas of study and be with my children more:)). To be honest enjoying my life and loving what I do is more important to me.
 Sure  I would love to meet that person to share life's adventures with:) but it isn't a necessity.  I am luckier than a lot of people; I have freedom ( that in itself is huge- many countries don't), my health, a roof over my head, nutritious food in my belly, the desire to constantly learn, and explore, children, family and wonderfully interesting  friends who I love dearly ...  this all leads to my happiness.
There are so many things I look forward to doing in the future, especially travel,  but I just know in my heart that it will all happen in time.  To be honest I am completely content living in this moment.
And of course it never hurts to make a wish on a falling star, or a field of dandelion fluffs as you mow them down while cutting the lawn;)
Namaste my Friends and may you already have found your joy or do so in keeping it simple:)
XO
