Happy International Day of Happiness

Apparently some folks realized that we should have one special day to remind us that there is more to life then our current status and celebrate happiness. That we should take an extra second and do anything, and everything that brings us pleasure and excitement, things that just make us go Yes!

Laugh, cry, jump, crawl, kiss, sleep, rejoice. Family. Friend. Pet. Flowers. Food. God. Whatever your heart’s content.

Celebrate today by being happy. Happy about what inspires, moves and surrounds you, what brings you zest. I put my list together, I hope you do too.

Life And It’s Corridors

Traveling through Myanmar

Life is an endless highway that metamorphoses into a catalog of unknowns that frames our journey and everyday existence. It is a voyage that initiates at dawn, veers through strokes, sways into various routes transporting us into nameless territories. Unaware of that ride and where it might transports us next, we hop on a plane and land in a region called reality.

Reality. Right now. The moment. Be still.

Providing all the amenities and scores of challenges, some build their lives rewarded by gratitude, understanding and love, and others by a stroke of luck, and unforeseen mayhem. Along the way, we encounter hurdles and opportunities that makes us jump and take notice, grow, creating an identity card unique to us.

Unsure of its corridors, it sometimes drives us into an encrypted new itinerary, undiscovered, vague. We are left alone to peddle around its bridge, embrace the mysterious and trade in a new outfit every second in the corridor of possibilities or tragedies, too often for our own good.

We run across scores of people – some brilliant others uninteresting, share stories – some beautiful and others soulless, celebrate occasions and make undeniable family of friends that we will perhaps treasure and put on a piggy bank.

Well, it is life. It is one previously carved enigma and we just simply don’t know. It is our journey, it defines us, we live it. It can change in a minute; so, let’s make the best of it!

A Sea Of Green

We have this thing at our church, we call it New Horizons. We cook, we decor, we bring entertainment and drinks, and the senior citizens, to include catholic, baptists, jews, evangelicals, just have to do one thing, show up.

They bring themselves and each other for a little soiree, to socialize, mingle, exchange ideas and have a great time for three good hours or so, or until there hearts desire. Today, it just happens to be St. Patrick’s Day and one of the member’ 90th birthday. Yes, she is ninety years younger and before the day was over, a little sip of the good ole Irish Coffee to brighten their day.

Are you feeling lucky yet? Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
