It’s Sunday Splendor!

And if you were one of the lucky ones like me to witness that Saturday night Blue Moon …… Whoa!

Today started with all the Splendor surroundings just outside the back door …… to sharing a glorious day with my sweet sister.

Most of us grow deeper and wiser as we grow older, thank you God.

Oh, it wasn’t always that way for me …… what changed? I got deeply rooted and committed in life. I do not want to keep any options open, I am deeply planted and committed ……

In God,

In my Riley,

In my Family,

and, in living a Joy-filled life.

My love for God, my family and to life itself gives me so much strength and proves that Joy is REAL!

The joy I feel is truly transcendent. We can all create happiness, but joy ‘clutches’ your soul. It takes hold and won’t let go, unlike happiness which is fleeting.

It’s the overwhelming and complete surrender of myself.

Oh, I know you might be thinking happiness is good, and I agree. Happiness is good but living a joy-filled life, is so much better.

You have heard it before; living in the moment.

I see Riley rolling around the fresh cut lawn out back that is so green and beautiful while the flowers are well watered and full of color, JOY.

It’s turning the music up and dancing like a teenager, JOY.

It’s my deep rooted faith, I have found my place, JOY.

It’s my daily intentionality, JOY.

Oh life is not always easy. Burdens will be heavy at times. I don’t believe a life of ease is the path to joy. Compassion and kindness to others brings true, JOY.

A narcissist can be happy, but a narcissist can never be joyful. The surrender of self is the exact thing, a narcissist cannot do.

I want to live a committed life well, stay deeply rooted and set my compass towards a joyful and faith driven life, JOY.

Sunday Splendor

Blessings from our home to yours.
