Yesterday was not a good day.... nothing was coming easily to me...
In the late afternoon i sat down with a cup of tea...
I kept glancing down at my mug...how can ones eye not be drawn to it... right...
it's such a 'cheerful' yellow...
a great colour choice for a mug with that one wistful little word ...
JOY...
And i found myself wishing...
IF ONLY... joy could be found and taken by the cup-full...
mug-full...jug-full... depending on how much u needed...
*sigh*
Sorry for u and me !!!
It just doesn't work that was...sad hey...
We have to 'find' the joy in our day...circumstance...life...
Because the truth is...WE ALL get the SAME 'test'...
Yes yes i know...don't we all feel sorry for ourselves from time to time...
My problems are worse than...
My heartache is more achy than...
NO
it might not be...
Sad is sad... disappointment - disappointment... worry - worry...
they all feel the same to the human heart...
It's just the reasons that are different...
It's what we do with the lessons learned that matters...
When i was a kid...the saying went something like this...
'Is the cup half empty or half full...'
Recently i have seen it said...'half full - half empty... doesn't matter...
count yourself lucky that there is something in your cup at all'
Count your blessings friends :)
Work on being 'present in the moment'...
Find your joy...
in ordinary moments and things and places and faces...
It may not always be easy... but it will always be worth it !
Wishing u all... JOY :)
