Beknec's Life List:
I was 8 I dreamed of going to Sweden. On 13/3/1980 I arrived in Stockholm, not for a moment thinking about the fact that I was on the other side of the world, all by myself. I had the best 7 weeks of my life and can still feel the coldness of snow falling on my tongue for the first time. It was really awesome to hold a snowflake on my finger and see the complexities of shape and colour - perhaps this is where I first got the idea to draw Celtic knots?
I am happy

I am happy

 

Today came the realisation of something that I have known for probably the last ten days or so.  I am happy!  I'm not going to be happy tomorrow, or next week, or next year (well actually I am) - I have chosen to be happy right now!  I have started doing random acts of kindness for others - something I haven't really noticed me doing for a while, and this only adds to my happiness.

 

I feel like my spirit has come alive!  So I am repeating my blog of this morning because this is when the realisation hit home:

 

Yes, it's true - I have stopped - and I have knelt down, and I have leaned over, and I have stuck my nose right into that freesia, and I have sniffed every last drop of rich perfume out of it!

 

And I have stopped - during the midnight hour - and I have listened, and I have heard a magpie warbling out his tune over and over again as if his mumma had told him he couldn't stop practicing until he got it right.

 

And I have stopped - as the sun was coming up this morning while I was watering the garden, and I have listened, and I have looked, and I have smelt, and I have felt the ambience of mother nature going on around me.

 

And I have rejoiced!

 

And I have remembered the words from another lesson - another day - "The world, after all our science and sciences, is still a miracle; wonderful magical and more, to whosoever will think it."

 

And I rejoice that I notice all the magical miracles that go on around me!

 

And I am happy!
