A Wonderful Life

French novelist Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette said, "What a wonderful life I've had!  I only wish I'd realized it sooner."  Pretty powerful.  Things don't always seem wonderful or spectacular but maybe they really are or maybe they don't have to be.  Maybe just the ordinary moments are wonderful.  Maybe if we look at them differently we'll enjoy our one and only life more.  Perhaps I can look at my messy kitchen and just love it because it's mine and dinners and memories are made there.  Things don't have to be shiny and perfect to be wonderful, right?

  1. Very impressed with the blog! Love the Halloween pictures! Sometimes (not always) a messy house is just too stressful for me. I need to feel stuff is in order before I can recognize my joy and appreciate the moment. I think that’s O.K. too. Everyone needs to find a balance for themselves. I do agree that ordinary moments are wonderful! Have a great day! Keep blogging … the site is great! I must get back to school.
