...here's to authentic joy!

...hellooo dearies!!

I do hope you are

 en~joy~ing

 your summer break!

We have been taking some "happy day jaunts"

here

and

there

(happy day jaunts = mini trips that require nothing more than for you to bring your happy spirit!!)

okay...

and a few tasty morsels don't hurt either!

the point is

to en~joy the beautiful places that are around us

en~joy~ing each other's company is a bonus too!!

...ahhhh yes,

this is pure bliss

 ~ me, my beloved ~

the salty sea air

the whispering waves...

hear them?

they whisper...joy

joy...

...joy.

seriously!

the very next time you are standing near those foamy rolls of delight,

 with your feet planted firmly into the soft, warm sand,

close your eyes and listen

and see if you don't hear it!

~

yep!

it doesn't get much better than this

...

 

 I have come to learn that these simple things

these things which can not be bought

and can not be planned,

these

are moments

that

 ~ just happen

and in these few precious moments,

there is no other way to describe them

you are simply

IN JOY!

and in those brief, unplanned ~

hit you outta nowhere

 moments

there are no worries

no cares

and right here,

right now

you become a vessel of that joy!

the kinda joy

that reaches way down deep

and authentically fills you up

and spills out over

onto anything and anyone that surrounds you...

and in that moment

you are of the same energy as those waves

and realize that life IS bigger than you...

and that it is more than you ~

but

you ARE a part of it

and can choose what fills you!!

I love those moments...

and lately

can't seem to get enough!

...here's to authentic

JOY!!!

biggest hugs!
