In the Moment – Reflections of Life , Love and Travel --“Another Birthday”
As I awoke this morning to another birthday, I feel a sense of peace and joy in my
soul. My heart is so full of gratitude
for the amazing friends and family in my life.
It feels different , not
having Sam by my side as I woke up at sunrise on my Birthday today. But, I’m not in heart wrenching sadness from
it any longer. I know he is out there
watching over me. I believe I’ve crossed a very important step
in the year of firsts, with the help and love of many people near and far.
Birthday’s would not exist without that person that carried
us who we call , “Mom”. So a great big
Thank You to my special Mom who brought me into this world, and
who taught by example of how to
be a strong independent woman . Through
the years she has provided me with an abundance of love, and instilled the knowledge that I could be
anyone I wanted to be. It’s because of
her, that I understand how to live and love with a passion, how to have confidence in myself , and how to not be afraid of the unknown. Most of all, believing that by taking chances I could achieve
success and such amazing happiness.
Over the past couple of days, I’ve been celebrating my
Birthday with a few of my girlfriends.
I get so much pleasure from spending quality time with these incredible
women. They are all such a gift to
me! I can’t imagine my life without
them. Some girlfriends I get to see more often than others because they
live near me but, even those
I only get the chance to see when I travel or hear their
voice on the phone puts such a smile on
my face when I think of them and all the wonderful memories that we have shared
over my lifetime. The bond I share with these ladies is one that
I will treasure until the day I leave this earth.
I also give Thanks to the Lord up above for filling my life
with people who I know are always going to be there for me. I’ve seen it, and I know for a fact this is
true! I hope to have many more beautiful
days and years ahead to share with those I love and cherish. In the meantime, I will continue to Live in
the Moment, dance the days and nights
away to the sweet sounds of music, travel
the globe, and be forever grateful to be
sharing this journey with you.
