Out of Normal: Smiling Big Today!!!!

Smiling Big Today!!!!

I am smiling big today!!! It has been a wonderful week, and things are really good for the Brochman!!!! Other than little spots of sunshine throughout this past year, I haven't really had a day like today. I don't really care to go into details, but I like my life, and like it a lot. When we choose to live our lives with a blank canvas, we are allowed to paint freely, and change designs at will. I guess that I look at my life like I look at my blog. No, I'm not going insane, I just see many parallels. Ok, maybe I am a little crazy =-)

Things come and go in our lives, and I could probably write a book about it. One of the things that I have decided, is that nothing is guaranteed to be forever, so treat what you have like gold. Being able to look back with no regrets is quite freeing. It also lets us look toward the future with bright eyed optimism, and an open heart. Every chance occurence in life happens for a reason. We have to learn to take from each encounter something that makes us better people.

Roadtrips are again becoming a part of my life, and as the weather is getting nicer, it is so enjoyable. Take a walk down an unfamiliar street. Take that staircase to an unknown place. Maybe even sit down and talk about if for awhile. Take my hand, and we'll make the trip together. I want to see new places this summer. Cockeyed optimism prevails.

Come on life, rain down on me.

Everyday is a new one. Hope you enjoy yourself more and more as they go by. Funny how stuff happens...last night I got a unexpected call from a friend flying back from the Bahamas to Atlanta; he was forced to land his plane here because of bad weather. Today, I rescheduled some appointments and drove him back. One thing led to another and before I knew it I found myself agreeing to spend a week at his log cabin in the Cherokee National Forest with my Reiki partner. Great days for everyone! Let's do it again tomorrow! Sure you won't give the details of your day?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I do leave certain details of my personal life offline. I find that life is simpler that way =-) I am all about simple, and that is just what happens to work best for me at this point.

Awesome, broch! Your post was a bright light in my evening! I too am enjoying the days and the evenings so much - things shift, my life-painting is taking on interesting colours and patterns. God is good and life is once more becoming filled with joy and the wonder of discovery is an awesome thing. Hugs to you and, yes, here's to life raining down on all of us - sweet, warm drops of joy!
