My wish for you

I'm listening to a local radio program this Sunday morning and this song struck me.."more than anything, my wish for you is that your dreams stay big and your worries stay small." What a nice thought today.

I think my dreams and wishes are pretty small. Some days I just wish for a few more hours in the day to do the things I want to after the things I need to do are done. OK, I didn't say they were feasible. Some days I wish for solitude when I know I'll have to go to town or to an appointment. Some days I wish for the particular jewelry wire I don't have for creating the piece I want to make. Some days I wish I understood what my bird was trying to tell me when he tried to eat my bare toes.

You get the idea. Granted, my worries really are small. I have a nice house with no payments, freedom to pursue my artistic interests, eat what I want when I want. I feel very fortunate and I know it. Actually I just realized that my biggest plus is being able to seek knowledge that I suddenly get an itch to know. My freedom and the internet give me this. Twenty years ago that would not have been possible, both from a freedom of information access and from my normal daily work schedule.

I wish for you that you find the loopholes in your daily schedule to 'see' what you don't take time normally to take notice of and enjoy or just appreciate. I wish for you the joy and lack of stress that result from knowing and approving of who you are and what you like. Have a great week!
