Oh! How I love todays!

My life at the moment is that time of day when the sun is starting to rise and the sky turns from black to midnight blue on the horizon and you can slowly see the colours in the sky changing as the rays of the sun starts to touch everything.  Full of hope and wonder and excitement about what the day might  bring.

I am just being reminded everyday of how blessed I am.  Each day is really a day filled with hope and wonder and a "what will today bring" kind of feeling and I'm loving it!!!  Places to go, things to do, people to see (and meet).  Just to throw in a cliché- when one door closes another does indeed open!  Like the Dalai Lama said:  "Sometimes not getting what you want, is a wonderful stroke of luck".

I am so lucky that I am surrounded by so many awesome people, I have at least chosen my friends wisely.  I am careful who I call "friend" as for me a friend is someone I consider to be like family.  These people who I chose and who chose me, have stuck by me and have carried (and sometimes nudged, shoved, pushed or dragged) me through good times and bad.  They are the people who don't have to stay but choose to stick around, play so many different roles in my life and I love each one of them dearly!  I don't know what I would've done without them.

At the moment I am enjoying standing with open arms, inviting life in, living each day the way I want and seizing the day!
