Did you ever stop to think why?
Why is it that on a day I need to be up on time, I oversleep by 40 minutes?
Why is it that on the day my kids want to eat cereal (which they never eat), I am always out of milk?
Why is it that there are still homeless and hungry people, children being beaten, abandoned and killed, violence in all corners of the world however Jon & Kate are bigger news then this?
Why are there so many reality shows on TV these days? Are we really that hard up that we can't enjoy our own lives so we have to voyeur into other peoples' lives?
Why is it that no matter how careful I am, I will snag my pantyhose when I am trying to put them on before church on Sunday?
Why do I always get my monthly friend at the most inopportune time with no warning as well as no provisions?
Why is it on a day when your makeup is perfect, hair is rockin, outfit is hot and you actually for once feel good about yourself you will never run into anyone you know?
Why is it that companies can make elastic tight enough to squeeze the life out of your stomach yet the elastic in your panties only lasts about 2 months?
Why do spaghetti o's, ravioli etc...(the microwave kind) smell like vomit?
Why is the "bad food" always cheaper then the food that is "good" for you?
These are just random things I think about every once in awhile as I try to slow down everyday and just see the moment at hand...
Just enjoy that snippet in time without fear, worry, anxiety...
It is actually a good thing if I can keep remembering to do it...
Do you ever truly slow down to just enjoy the moment at hand?
I know you are all busy but take a minute or just a few seconds and look around you as you read this...
Take a deep breath and focus...
It could be a picture sitting on your desk from a long ago vacation...
A tree outside that is in full bloom or maybe the leaves are starting to change colors...
It could be a smell that reaches you as you focus...
Maybe someone is making popcorn at this moment or heating up a bowl of soup...
Focus on something that makes you smile...
Breathe...
Now hug yourself and have a wonderful day!
Don't forget to take the time out of your busy day to find joy in your life...

Yes, I know why most of these things happen. I said to Ace one time-- because it's supposed to!! :) She thought I was being a smarty pants, and I probably was.
ReplyDeleteAnd I think I'll skip the deep breath part today. Have you seen my blog lately?
