Life is a vacation. Enjoy it!

Life is a short visit or vacation on this planet.  And I know when I go on vacation I’m more relaxed.  I don’t take myself so seriously.  If I don’t follow the plan exactly it’s okay, whatever happens will be fun and exciting.  So why don’t I live my entire life this way?

That’s my current goal.  Life really is for the living. 

I think my biggest problem is that I have so many things that I want to experience in life that I would have to live to be 230 years old to do it all.  And then I probably wouldn’t be able to do the entire list because the list would have grown.  But I’m working on trying as many things as I can.  And the things that seem to work for me I’m doing more of, looking into them deeper, expanding my knowledge of them.  The things I try, even if they were things I thought were ‘really it’, I’m attempting to let go if they don’t seem to fit me once I’ve experienced them.  

Like hobbies I’ve done in the past.  I have had some wonderful hobbies.  Things I wish I still had time for.  But there are many more hobbies that I’d like to try out.  Something has to go. I can’t put my heart into so many things at one time!  

And I love to try new things.  It’s one of the joys in my life.  

Although the biggest joy in my life is my family.  No matter what, they are my biggest love.  My heart beats in time with the beat of love.  The universe is so full of wonder and excitement.  And there is no bigger excitement or thrill than opening your heart to family and friends.  

So while you’re on this vacation, on our glorious planet, remember to allow your heart to open to new experiences and most of all to family and friends.

try cutting a few of your herbs from your garden and making a bouquet as I did below.  They don’t always have to go in your recipes.  The fresh scent is lovely.
