Livin’ The Life
A passing comment, words that meant no glory, no harm,
spoken, then forgotten, but for some odd reason, they remain hunkered in my head today.
Look at (insert name).
They are livin’ the life !! with their doing and going and being …
& hmmm.
it’s !! livin’ the life !! I continue to ponder, because what does that mean, exactly ?
Hey, Google ??
I need specifics, please …
“Live the life” means utilizing every moment of life to do something which can give you long-term happiness. It means not wasting your time on rubbish things.
Well, ok.
So.
Let’s see.
umm …
I really, really, REALLY enjoy cutting the grass with my devoted push-mower
and I truly adore partnering with a snow shovel, after a blustery Winter storm.
Stacking a gigantic pile of wood all neat and tidy is a fantastic form of exercise
and walking in the park with Barry Manilow singing in my ears calms my brain.
An occasional road trip,
lunch at my favorite diner,
a family that loves me soooooo,
locking myself away, every now and again, to pen a poem or story.
a cup of coffee,
catching the sunrise
whispering secrets to those glittery stars and this glorious universe.
Baseball games with the grandboys …
discovering amazing, with a curious 2 year old,
BIG HUGS from my people,
songs shared,
belly laughs,
just because-s …
Yep.
I could easily go on and on and on …
& right THERE, sits my point.
Because when one finds alignment ??
!! oooooooweeeeeee !!
everything else quietly, effortlessly, tumbles into place.
YaY
Livin’ the life ?
Oh yes.
I am.
