I've been so happy lately... I wonder why! heheh It's so nice to have my parents over, to wake up and run to their room and jump on the bed! Yesterday when I got home from work my mom had cleaned my room, and I found this on my kitchen..
Man, I love em!!
This morning we woke up early and went for a jog around my lake, were planning on doing this everyday it was just so nice out...
~*~*~*~
Last week I started reading this book called "Whimsy for Wendys" {Joy Infused Living For Grown Ups}I was honored to be one of the first people to read it since it came out today!
I was immedietely curious to read it just by the name of it.
First thing I thought was fairy tale and love! I should have found out about this book on my birthday! Some woman {including myself} are so scared of aging, and I didnt know why until I read this book. We feel like because were aging and we have resposibilities, bills, family to take care of, that things are no longer fun!
I speak for myself when I say this, I used to go camping every Thanksgiving and I had a blast! I would dream about November all year long, all of a sudden last year I didnt enjoy it anymore. Things start getting dull, and having fun just seems stupid and like a waist of time.
12 amazing women wrote this book, they each tells us what their whimsy is...
The book starts with Annie Talking about Wendy from Peter Pan, and how in the end the grows old and forgets how to fly. But we dont ever have to forget how to fly "I will age, but I will not go gentle into that good night, I will do so with a bang... Involving polka dots"
they tell us what they personally do to enjoy their life and not just live it, they talk about their own personal experiences.
"I will Dance like nobody is watching, love like i've never been hurt, I will bless the names I used to curse, for without them I wouldnt be here... And though I'd rather fly beside you, I will fly inspite of you, if need be"
This book is simply amazing, it will cheer anyones spirits up!
"Your life is your greates work of art"
"You have not forgotten how to fly..."
