I WONDER

Hello.  Stating the obvious, I haven't posted here for a loooong time.  I come here occasionally and think, "I should post something here." Then I don't and now I'm wondering why that happens.  Could be that I have lots going on in my life; maybe I can't think of anything "interesting" to write about;  maybe....I'm a little lazy?
I really am happy with the way my life is going.  Family and friends are the best one could ask or hope for.  I guess did something right in the past to feel so blessed now.  When I consider my life as it has progressed, I feel privileged to have had so many blessings.
I have been more open in the past few years to the spiritual side of life.  I have lots of time now to read and  reflect on the spiritual. "There is more to life than you and I can know"....I think that's how the quote goes....what I mean is that there are things we can't account for in the "see it and then believe it" way of living.  So, I look for small miracles and unexplainable, happy syncronicities.
When one is young and striving to succeed at whatever the vision of 'success in life' is, the material side of life seems so important.  Of course, providing for the children you have is very important and the material things, like food, shelter, and clothing, depend on the 'material'.  Now that the kids are grown and seem to be okay with how we brought them up, I can look back and think how great it all was....still is!
Well, this turned into a longer rambling than I thought it would.  So, my dear readers, have a blessed day, a happy life and give yourself a pat on the back for reading this far!

And I so enjoyed reading this!
I watched a mockingbird building her nest yesterday. I was talking with my Daddy about how she can do that...amazing to me. He said much the same thing as you did in your blog. There is so much to life than we can ever know. The amazing creations of our Lord are magnificent to behold and to think that not a bird falls from the sky or a hair falls from our head that our Lord doesn't know about. Amazing...and wonderful. I am so happy to know that you feel the happiness that you do, my friend. I send you hugs and wishes for many many more happy and blessed days, weeks, and years to come.
Hugs,
J.

Hi Mar!!! It is so nice to hear from you and I am so happy that all is well with you.

I couldn't agree more with you. I find the older I get the more spiritual I get as well. A self discovery of sorts I suppose.

I've been a lazy blogger. Not a lazy person, very busy. Good to have you back in the blog world!

Love Di ♥
