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!
