Eudaimonia

Why yes you guessed it, we woke up with that extra giddy-up in our step this morning. Or maybe it is because we got (many hours) of such deep sleep! 
Or, could it be because we are finally experiencing some Fall-like morning temps. Texas style! 
It’s a combination of outside/external influences for sure. 
And if you know me at all then you know that even when the outside influences become roadblocks, I will scoop up the gratitude that is within me to bring out my sassy soul and remind myself of just who I am! 
My own free acts remain the roots upon which my happiness infiltrates my being. (that’s a mouthful)
Of course a little help from cool mornings, hot coffee, Eddie laying nearby as I watch the sun rise all from our balcony …… well, you get picture!
The path is clear to me. 
And most importantly, I know I am never alone on my journey. 
➕
I am so happy with my journey. I really am able to let things fall as they may. I cannot (and don’t want to) control everything. When you finally realize you can’t anyway, life becomes more peaceful.
Oh I know that difficult things will happen. And when they do …… 
 is when I reach deep inside for the reservoir of love and strength that only my Lord provides. 
And guess what, He also provides the peace and calm that I have learned to cultivate and grow. 
Hey, now that just gives me goosebumps!
