Opera in the Marketplace

Again this week, I received a moment of joy in my email. Thank you, Marsha.

These events are important because they remind us to be joyful wherever we are -- and to be open to delightful surprises and enjoy life!

I hope this one also makes you smile today - and remember, wherever you go next week, watch for the joyful moments and relish them!

Opera singers disguised as shopkeepers were selling produce at various stalls last month at the central market in Valencia , Spain . Suddenly Verdi's Il Travatore started playing over the loudspeakers, and watch what happened.

What is your "one thing"

What is life all about? What is your life all about? Do you know yet?

Flying a Helicopter

My friend Janice just called! She piloted a helicopter for the first time today! Yippee!

She said, "I was proud of me for not backing out, I was proud that I breathed the whole time, and when he handed me the wheel, I did not panic. I didn't throw up either!"

A few years ago, Janice moved west to accept a new job. Not long after that, she bought her first house. In fact, her life since she moved to Oregon has been one victory after the other.

When she was here at Christmastime, she told me "I am going to learn to fly helicopters!" I laughed, "you probably will!"

And she is doing just that!

Why is all this female chatter worth writing about? It's all about taking a chance, learning something new, breaking out of your rut and making your own dreams come true. What would you like to do this year that you have only dreamed about in the past? Want to fly a helicopter? Ride an Elephant?

Whatever your dream, please go for it! I will be your cheerleader!

A friend reminded me once, "we are not going to graduate from life. We are not in school anymore. This is it!"

Now is the time to go for your dreams, take those classes, ride that elephant, fly that helicopter! Today!

Sudden Joy

My friend Jeanie sent me the link to this moment of joy this morning!

As I watched, I was in awe. A sudden joyful moment of happy entertainment in the middle of a busy day!

Would you have stopped to watch?

I hope you smile as you watch this video and I hope you remember today to take the time to experience joy-- wherever it presents itself!

The Ten Year Journal

My favorite journaling technique is the Ten Year Journal

Most of us have time to write 5 little lines every day -- and that is all that is required with the Ten year journal. To see how I use this journal, simply visit the link above.

Or go to Amazon now and check it out. This journal is a beautiful gift too. I have used it for wedding gift for senior couple and they love it. It's super for new moms, high school students, college students, and anybody who loves paper and pen!
