Leave a comment

Day 3 of the February Challenge to spread JOY! Today, five places that bring me joy:
1. Home with my family and sometimes alone

2. My bed sandwiched between my feather bed & feather comforter

3. A beach, the beach almost any beach

4. driving on long road trips

5. San Francisco, CA

Do you have anywhere that brings you joy?

ah this is a tougher one, Day 4, February Challenge spreading the joy, what five quotes bring you inspiration and make you joyful?:

1.) 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

2.) I Love Summer – Olaf “Let It Go”

3.) While we try to teach our children all about life, our children teach us what life is all about.~author unknown

4.) Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take … but by the moments that take our breath away!

5.) An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break.
-Chinese proverb

Five pieces of music that bring Joy to my life this is hard to narrow down as music is a part of our everyday lives all day playing in our home or the car!

1. Pachelbel’s Canon in D ~ the music I walked down the aisle to meet my husband at our wedding.
2. Fly Me to the Moon – Frank Sinatra, the first song we danced to at our wedding which we still try to remember the steps to even these days and our girls laugh 🙂
3. Twinkle twinkle little star played by the hospital when Ally was born.
4. Silly Love Songs, Paul McCartney & Wings
5. Let It Go – Idina Menzel, when this first came out the JOY in hearing my girls sing along with this everyday and I would always smile at their JOY which was infectious!
6. The music soundtrack for the June Demonstration tears of joy well up every time for the whole student body
