the good things

It becomes very easy to focus on what's wrong in our lives. Clearly it isn't just those of us with chronic pain and such. All of us get bogged down in what needs to get done, what bills haven't been paid, what appliances are breaking down, what homework must get done now and on and on.

Today I took the time with my daughter to walk at the beach. We kept it short for my sake, nevertheless it was amazing. The water was so blue. The surfers were out. The air smelled like ocean.

The fact is, we need to take time to enjoy our lives. Time goes by so quickly and there are so many things to experience. It doesn't have to be a big adventure. Sitting under a tree in a park. Reading a book in a coffee house. Going for a drive and admiring beautiful homes. Anything.

These things will help us all reduce our stress and are good for anyones health.

Enjoy the good things. They don't have to be big.

peace and love,
sunee
