Wind in My Hair

It is a warm spring day. I am riding in the vehicle with the window down, the breeze blows in and tosses my hair in every which direction. The song on the radio fills the remaining space between us and I cannot help but sing along.

Spring is that wonderful time of the year when life starts to return to our world. Our hearts too are filled with joy. May spring bring love, a light heart and a smile to your life.

Enjoy the wind in your hair.

Cartwheels

Are the days of cartwheels gone from my life? Am I to old for such silliness? When was the last time I preformed the daring feet of spinning myself head over toes while keeping my hands firmly planted on the ground? If I remember correctly I think I lost my watch that day. The loss of the watch however was worth it as I gained so much more in the loosing.

The heart is willing but the body is weak ~ how did this happen ~ and when? I must have blinked and missed it. Perchance today I will muster the strength and attempt a cartwheel ~ when no one is looking ~ definitely I will carry a cartwheel in my pocket like any other treasured coin.

Friends

Friends are a great joy, friends bring love and laughter to our lives. Some friendships span the decades and last a lifetime. I have been very fortunate to have friends that have been in my life since I was a young girl and I know they will be with me always.

They would be at my side with a beckoning call. They are with me in heart and soul as they know I am with them always. Always!

Here's to friendship! Here's to love! Here's to always!

I'm Yours

The sky is yours. Don't hesitate!

I'm Yours by J. Mraz
We first heard this song on our Minnesota
road trip, October of 2008.
A great song for a great Friday!

Spring Exclamations

Kick off your shoes.
Run in opposite directions.
Chase your thoughts in circles.
Scream past the limits and
create exceptions to the rules.

Lines of Love

...

A hug, a handshake and a kiss.
Handshake of gratitude.
A hug of admiration.
A kiss of love.
The transitions between an acquaintance,
a friend and a lover.
