“There is some kind of a sweet innocence in being human- in not having to be just happy or just sad- in the nature of being able to be both broken and whole, at the same time.” ~ C. JoyBell C.
After a weekend of celebration, joy, inspiration, learning and connection, returning to life as I know it felt empty. It’s the landing after a beautiful flight, soaring high above the world; it’s the morning after the wedding celebration; it’s the goodbyes after rich conversation and meaningful time with friends; it’s sorrow after the happiness. We’re left wondering if we will ever recapture that again. Not knowing and fearing we may not, we feel broken.
Then, the sun rises again. A new day greets us with a song, a story, a strong cup of coffee, and we’re off – heading into the next thing and knowing full well that everything will be okay. We recognize when we are joyful. We practice gratitude. We experience it again – perhaps differently next time, but always knowing (and trusting) that we will bring everything good to ourselves. This requires the knowing that we have the ability to create our reality – a really wonderful reality.
Make it a strong day!
