Share the Joy–Let It In…

From this Week’s Joy List :

This is me looking joyful and loved.

That is how my friends make me feel.

Yesterday, I reached out to a few and was vulnerable, and let them know I was in need.

In need of some loving, some assurance, some support.

And I received that from my friends in such an abundance that I went to sleep last night feeling very loved and very grateful..

And that is the greatest joy.

 

“The days I keep my gratitude higher than my expectations, I have really good days.” Ray Wylie Hubbard

 

It made a difference in how I felt waking up this morning too.

Today I feel lighter, more hopeful and maybe, just maybe,

I won’t be quite so hard on myself today.

And that should leave a lot more space for joy to come !

*****************

And while I have been complaining that my Muse has abandoned me for warmer climes,

I guess she took time out from her vacation to make an emergency visit back to me.

This is the journal page I sat down and let pour out of me in the gloom of yesterday’s rainy/snowy/grey afternoon.

Stencils, spray inks, Twinkling H2Os, Faber Castell pens, and one important collage piece from an old dictionary and this page was born.

I am feeling my “small particle of fire”.

And that brings this Artist Girl joy !!!

 

I hope you are opened up to love and joy today, Beautiful Ones.

It sure is good for what ails you !

Happy Thursday !
