Recently I messed up my hair. Also my chin keeps breaking out. I gained back the 5 pounds I lost. I still don't have a job. My husband is on 3rd shift and I don't see him enough. Also he is still drinking. And yet... everything is just so lovely.
Do you ever just feel like you're "in the flow"? I looked that up. It's how I feel right now. And I remember thinking of it specifically that way since I was in high school. I wondered if it was a real thing so I Googled it. It is! According to Wikepedia... Flow is the mental state of operation in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. I agree with that to some extent. But for me it also includes God.
It can be as simple as hanging out with my kids and thanking God for them. Riding my bike and marveling at nature. Getting in bed and feeling happy when my husband touches my foot with his. Laughing with my parents. Praise at my clinical that I will stand out as a therapist. Loving the people I run into during a day. Reading something spiritual that gives me an "aha" moment. Just an overall feeling that everything is good and working out just how it's supposed to. Thank you God.
And then the Brady's sing Sunshine Day.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaCCG7QkM_c
