Rich - I'm wealthy enough to buy groceries when I need them. A huge percentage of the worlds population can NOT do this. We take it for granted. I have two beautiful daughters, a loving, compassionate husband, one unendingly loving dog and one wise cat. All things money can not buy!
Beautiful - There's nothing like my sweet angel babies faces. While they're sleeping. There's also nothing like the sound of their laughter. Even when they're fighting, I see it as a gift. They have each other to love. Today, tomorrow and forever. I have them to love, too. Watching them blossom into the gorgeous people they've become has been something stunning to see. A vision even more breathtaking than the Grand Canyon.
Warm - I have those same girls, husband, dog and cat to love on me and keep me warm. Inside and out. My home is heated and we have more than enough blankets to go around. Something none of us should forget. Especially now when it's so cold. Your "old blanket" could save a life.
Messy - My definition of clean and my girls definition are NOT the same. Even when my house is clean, it's a mess. My sweet girls have large closets and beds, in which to hide their multitude of "treasures". Being "messy" is a privilege.
Full - As in full tummies, full hearts, full cupboards, full pantry, full closets. If you leave my house hungry, it was by your own choice!
Intense - I love intensely. I hurt intensely. I empathize intensely. I feel intensely. I try very hard to teach my girls that if you're going to do something---do it 100%!
Hard - We have hard heads around here. Especially, my girls. I've taught them to stand firm in their convictions. Speak the truth. Stand up for yourself and those that can not stand up for themselves.
Peaceful - There's nothing quite like reading a good book in my jacuzzi tub. I relish this alone time. It recharges my spirit, allowing me to give more freely when I'm done. I know that finding a peaceful place within is as important as finding one somewhere in your life. I'm thankful to have a place to calm the inner voice that threatens us all.
Amazing - I am so touched by my wonderful friends. They fill my life with wonder. I'm constantly amazed at how they can persevere through trials I have scarcely dreamed of. They love me for me. That is truly amazing!
Wonderful - I am awe struck, every day. I learn something new, every day. In some ways, I'm still like a child finding wonder in simple things. It will always amaze me how, after the winter snows all melt away, the grass finds the strength inside itself to become green again. A lesson, we all could learn from.
Take a deep breath.................It's just another day in Perfect!!!!
