A cozy corner where stories, laughter, and the invetibale chaos thrive!

Where humour is often found in the mundane, where the trivial becomes of utmost importance, where, well...where I Live!


Since becoming a Members of the groups below, I will use the daily prompt, as well as, well...sharing the sporadically mundane everyday, that I find carries just a Smidge of humor. ;)

Know your own happiness. You want nothing but patience or give it a more fascinating name, call it hope." Jane Austen.

I Do know my own happiness. Well, most of the time. My happiness does not revolve around any specific person, as we are all fallible and will let each other down. My happiness...my Joy, and my Hope all come from Christ. No one or nothing can take these from me.

Does this mean that every moment of everyday, I will feel these to Bursting? That I will not have moments of disappointment, anger, frustration, impatience? Certainly not. However, with Christ as my compass, I am able to steer back into calmer waters.

As the Optimist in my family (only myself and my husband at home), I OFTEN lose my patience with him, as he is Ever the...Pessimist! He is short-tempered, or hot-headed, as he likes to say; prone to impatience, and easily frustrated.
When he Spirals (as I like to call it), I have to remind him to find joy the the small blessings, to be patient, and to seek peace.

He, in turn, reminds me that I am not always patient, hold grudges (I Dispute This), and get angry (at him) too easily.

Sigh...

Perhaps we can learn to build upon each other's strengths, and not let ourselves become annoyed...irrational...over the little, irritating things about each other. There is...Hope, after all. *BigSmile*
