Ins and Outs of my Life

The small things in life!

I have been so up lately and I am so glad! I have come to a conclusion that it is the small things in life where true happiness lies! For example, smelling the smell of fresh cut grass, or just reading the Sunday paper without interruptions! Or how about listening to a child's laughter, watching the clouds or the rain1 Yes, those things sound corny in how they can make you so happy, but I think it is just those things we need to find time to enjoy! Only last year, I was going through some kind of mild depression! It was a medical problem causing it but I think I learned to start taking care of my needs then too. I started telling others in my life! I quit being so nice to everybody! I am still easy to get along with, but I have learned to do things for me and my family first! I was so invoved in projects and so many people were calling on me for favors and I never had the nerve to say no, because I felt I needed to be "all to everyone!"! But now I have backed down on my schedule and am enjoying things so much more! I have time for me!!! Well at least a little (being a working mom takes a lot of time) for me! I am so happy to also have time for God in my life! He is blessing me so much!
