Tonight I'm yours, take my hand.

What is life all about for you? 

Money, Happiness, Sucess, Belongings, Family, Career,

any of these... 
all of these...
none of these...

For me, right now, life is about peace.  Not like Miss America "umm.. like I want world peace."  No, I am speaking of peace in my heart & soul.  Feeling totally content with what I am doing and who I am.  Being able to laugh at my mistakes and being able to smile in the joys that life hands you that often flash by you because we are too busy worrying about everything else. 

I call these little things Strawberries;  small, sweet, heart-shaped little reminders that life can be marvelous.  It is truly about stopping and noticing these things.  Taking the time.  This is a big one for me.  I am a "go go go" type of person, I can't help it.  I can very rarely shut off my brain and just relax.  I notice this a lot more now a days since I am trying to get away from this but even when I think I am relaxing my brain is always going....

"laundry really needs done"
"ugh the kitchen is really a mess"
"I need to remember to call so & so"

Something has slowed me down. Well, specifically not just something ... someone!


Someone has been those little strawberries for me.

Someone has shown me how to take the time to slow down and feel the cool water rushing past your bare feet.

Someone has shown me that life is worth taking risks.  Worth making a serious change to see if the end result can be something glorious. 

Someone has taken me by the hand and taken the time to reach into my heart and help me believe again.

He is that someone.
