Reflect in the Rain~

I can hear the rain hitting my window and the sound is very calming. Today is one of those days that you wish that the dinner would cook themselves and magicly serve you, too! The kids seem content playing in their rooms and the hubby is relaxing in the bedroom watching t.v. I guess I am writing this because it's those simple kind of days that seem to make me look around and realize how lucky of a person I am. Life can be so busy and all we do is go, go, go and at times we need a little rain to calm us and let us reflect within ourselves, to slow us down a bit and enjoy the simpler things in life. Today is a good day and it may not have to rain in order for you to reflect, it's something we all should do once in a while. If your life is not where you want it to be, hold on and keep a positive attitude and you will see things changing for the better. Be thankful for what we DO have and let's not compare our lives to others. Where you are at the moment is where you should be. God is showing you something about yourself and through the pain that we face in life, there is always a greater lesson. We have to look within our higher selves and have faith that we can get through whatever it is that we are going through. One thing I know for sure is that I do not take my life for granted. I am a lucky woman! The older I get, the wiser. I have learned that I choose to be happy, and when I do that, I notice all the wonderful things in my life! It took me a while to learn that, and when I finally did-I was finally happy! So let us all be grateful for what we have and let us choose to be happy. Remember, God has a plan for you. You also own part resposibility in creating your destiny. Live life, live happy!
