Hosting friends last Sunday gave me the opportunity to stop and realize the abundance and happiness we are lucky enough to live in.
Watching my children fish.
To walk to realize that I don't take the time to walk often enough, that I had forgotten my path.
Cooking with my friend, improvising and creating a fabulous meal from the vegetables in the fridge. Cooking in a relaxed, curious, and discovering way, to the sounds of my favorite jazz records.
To enjoy friends around the meal, to marvel at it.
Just be, stop and let life carry us.
Why not take a vacation here and there? Take time for yourself and those you love?
Life is precious.
I create breaks for myself in the morning (even if I have to wake up 15 minutes earlier to do it!) to be happy, to feel spoiled, to enjoy myself.
With my loves, without waiting for a particular day, I try to have small moments of happiness: to highlight a joy, to have attention, a little special, because every day spent with them is. Thank you life for letting me appreciate them, to enjoy them.
When was the last time you stopped? When did you treat yourself to a little vacation, a coffee, and a look at life?
