A Bit of Magic Waiting

~~I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.~~  JB Priestly

Isn't it lovely to wake up and realize you have one more day to spend loving life?!  Enjoying family.  Laughing.  Forgiving.  Healing.

To me, life is a journey filled with the unexpected.  And I have found that if you focus on the positive and keep your eye on the good, the unexpected doesn't have to destroy who you are.  Its how I quit smoking.  Its how I lived through my uglies.  It keeps me looking forward.  And it makes me so glad to be alive!

I believe that there is magic out there in the world.  There are miracles waiting for people to notice them.  There are good souls shining their light so that we don't have to suffer through darkness forever.  Its up to us, though, to look for that magic and believe in those miracles and reach for the shining souls. 

You don't have to.  One of the glories in life lies in choosing what you believe and how you want to live.  I like that feeling of excitement I get when I think about what lies ahead.  Its something good...I know it!  I like also to share that excitement and pass on the delight I feel when looking at my lovely world.  I hope that someone somewhere catches a glimpse of that magic simply by understanding me.

It has been an amazingly beautiful day so far.  While everything hasn't gone my way, I get to go home to a fun 12 year old boy and be surrounded by family and neighbors who keep me smiling.  May you enjoy your world as well 🙂  Sheri
