I find myself in a space of contemplation today. Perhaps it is the beautiful fall weather ~ crisp, cold and reflective.
As I get older, I find myself going with the flow of my life, rather than struggling to attain that which I do not have. On another day, a year or so ago, I wouldn't have felt comfortable with the silence of the afternoon. Today, I feel so comfortable and so at peace with who I am; with who I have become in the past year.
In writing this blog, I always try to be as honest with myself and you, the reader, as I possibly can. I am a spiritual being having a human experience. For me, it is so important to remember this truth. We are here to experience every single aspect of being human ~ the innocence, the naivety, the failures and the successes.
My oldest child will be four years old this month, and I find myself amazed that so much time has gone by. I am so grateful that I have stayed home with my children because I am having the time of my life. My children bring me so much joy everyday. I am so lucky. Soon I will be coming into a time when I will have to begin letting go of them. Thankfully that day is not today.
Enjoy your Fall.
Hello Nicole,
ReplyDeleteI too have been feeling more contemplative as autumn's light evokes the changing phases in the cycles of life. I am grateful for wisdom with maturity.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
I am so glad today is not the day to let your little ones go and so happy you are a stay-at-home Mom. From one who has been there, I don't think there is anything better! This is a great up-lifting post...thank you.
ReplyDeleteHave a very wonderful Thanksgiving, Nicole!
It truly does feel like the time to feel grateful for everything. Thank you for your encouragement Marion!
ReplyDeleteI hope you both had a happy Thanksgiving too!
