Good morning is a beautiful wish
In the morning, when we wake up is a perfect time to think about how much we have to be grateful for.
I am lucky
I am living the life I chose and have been for the last 2 decades.
I wake up in the morning and think about the day ahead and how wonderful it is to be alive.
Until I left the country, I was born in I didn’t have this feeling of freedom and beauty around me.
I was in chains.
I was afraid and and I allowed mean people to control my day.
I have had challenges, many of them, since I left but everything has always turned out for the better.
Something has saved me, always.
Today is a beautiful morning in my little land and the rain has stopped for a while in my little village.
Just one more Saturday left of this month and everything changes.
The clock goes back one hour and tells us that now is winter!
The road to the winter is approaching.
It will be colder and more lights everywhere.
The women selling their products at the markets all over the country.
The men will participate in their own way, perhaps more offering the food and the wine.
The most important is that everyone is working towards the same goal, to support the family and make sure they have food on their table and heat in their body.
I like to have a plan.
I do have a plan.
I am going into the new year saving for the new car and am excited.
Next year I will travel more than this year.
I need more boost to my physical health and the plan is to continue on the road to restoring my body.
Someone said to me the other day: THE MOST IMPORTANT IS NEVER TO STOP
I agree
The road to a better life is to continue to do what is working well.
I was pissed off and sad when I got it confirmed that I was out of the community in one way, just because I am lucky to be allowed to live long. I could not get credit anywhere, if I was younger, I could get out immediately and buy a new car, paying for it monthly during one or 2 years.
Everywhere I asked I got: NO NO NO NO NO, you are too old!
For a while I was devastated and felt humiliated.
After few days of being down I rose up with my natural optimistic attitude and accepted what I could not change.
Janyary is my month, it’s the month I will say good bye to my wonderful old car who has been my companion the last almost 15 years and served me well.
My point is that life continues and new opportunities rise.
Gratitude makes me happy.
Gratitude is the key to happiness.
My independent life is my goal.
Yesterday I went to my flower shop and bought some new plants to have at my balcony.
Colours are my best friends.
They make me feel perfect and today my blue trousers are keeping me warm.
What more can I wish for!
This morning, I listened to an interview with one of the famous singers. He is humble and his voice is deep and amazing. Listening to people like him makes life better. It is like a food for the soul.
Music, books, art and nature are my keys to a healthy happy life.
Wishing you a perfect weekend I hope you will find a food for your soul to lift you up. There is so much to be happy about, we just have to look.
