Living the Dream . . .
So often I hear the line, “Living the Dream” and I wonder if people are saying it sarcastically or with reverence. Living each day fully and with wonderful housing, food, education, and responsibilities is living the dream to me. I like variety. I enjoy having opportunities to be with friends and family. To play with the dog, drive to the grocery store, and attend church make life sweet. Having nice neighbors is also a blessing!
For me I am grateful for every day. Actually I am grateful for many things. Each night that I have a comfortable bed to sleep in ranks high in my list. We all need good sleep and a peaceful place to rest of weary heads each night.
I am grateful for my husband, children, grandchildren, and close friends who care about me and those around them. I am thankful for the business people who are helpful and continually mentor for me with good values. I enjoy them.
I am grateful for a fun day yesterday with my daughter who took me to see West Side Story at Paramount Auditorium in Aurora. We enjoyed a Sandwich at Ballydoyle, an Irish Pup downtown. Took us back to our journey to Ireland! Pure Joy! Sometimes it is good to try new places, see new things, and refresh old fond memories.
I wish you a “grateful day”; one that is rich in the things that mean a lot to you. Delight in Living as the new week prior to Easter begins!
