Joy is inevitable.
Tuesday, September 25th, 2007
As usual, lots to be smiling about in my life:
• My youngest daughter’s new friend, Paper. Not sure if I heard her right, I asked ‘Paper? Are you sure that’s her name?’ She gave an enthusiastic nod. The next day she came home to explain that her friend’s name wasn’t Paper after all… it’s Paige. (Get it? Paper… page… Paige?) :)
• Listening to Meiko. Especially loving How Lucky We Are.
• While I was making dinner, my daughter comes in and says, ‘Oh, I almost forgot!’ 
She reaches down into the side of her sock and pulls out a small, pretty stone. ‘It’s for you, Mom. I found it during recess and knew you would love it.’ Aww, bless her soul, the sweet dear carried a rock in her sock all day just for me… :)
• Blog Action Day. A great concept. Won’t you consider joining in?
• In a recent note from The Universe, this single line resonated with me so much that I have adopted it as my new mantra: “Joy remains life’s only inevitable.” I love that perspective.
