Isn't it crazy how one moment it can be super sunny out then dark and hailing but then super sunny again. Sometimes that is how life can feel too...everything going great then something mucks it all up but then it is all great again. Those are the challenges that make us stronger. If everything was always sunny and beautiful then we would stop appreciating it.
I appreciate my family and friends. I appreciate that I have a job that I love that helps to support my family. I love that the sun always comes out...even in the darkest of days.
You see for me joy equals the sun. It makes me warm and it makes me smile. Best of all I am sure there is always going to be a rainbow at the end of the storm.
Memory...
As I sit here (still since I can't do anything else!) working on a book about our fantastic trip to Washington this past summer, my computer seems to slow down...not terrible, but enough to be a bit irritating for someone like me who does not like to do anything g slowly. For my computer I can run a Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool... or I can clear my cache to hopefully speed things up. It might take several minutes but hopefully it allows me to work at the pace that I enjoy.
How can I clean up my cache? How can I speed my brain up? Maybe by realizing that the past is not my future...maybe realizing God is in charge, not me. That He controls my joy if I just take a breath and let Him. Time to dump that cache that is slowing me down and time to look for the joy...
Some of the things that slow me down are the times that I spend thinking about doing things but not ever doing them. That was the conversation the my all-star boy and I had last night. Talking about actually doing the things that we imagine and to stop thinking we need more before we can do them. Time to see that joy is right in front of me...I don't need anything else...I just need to do something about it.
Sometimes I wonder if the nighttime talks that J and I have are for him......or if they are really for me!!!! He brings me joy!!!
Well, my computer has deleted it cache and recycle bin so I think I will get back finding my joys...to doing what makes me happy and not just thinking about it!
