In a Gratitude Attitude.
I just came from a WOW meeting at Unity. WOW stands for Women Of Wonder and we always have great speakers and heartfelt participation from our group. Wednesday’s focus was on abundance and affluence. I was reminded of how helpful it is to be grateful for everything good in my life and how focusing on the good brings more good into my life. It’s that old law of attraction thing. We attract that which we focus on. So today I’m focusing on a list of things I LEA, Like, Enjoy and Appreciate.
I LEA: making love, any time of the day when the mood hits * dark chocolate, I hear it’s good for you! * the ocean, I could watch ocean waves for hours * sunshine and warm days, I like it warm, not too hot, not too cold, but just right * reading a good book, usually romance but not always, I do have other interests * laughing, usually at myself, it’s the best kind of fun * The Big Bang Theory, TV show, it always makes me laugh, which is good for anything that ails you * ying and yang, because balance is so important * gazing off into the distance, as if I’m in deep thought but I’m probably just gazing * full moons, half moons, crescent moons, moon light, as you can see, I have a thing for moons * fairies, I do believe in them * trees, I think I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree * roses, or just about any flowers * romantic kisses, God bless romantic kisses * sleeping, I’m a big fan of a good night’s sleep * a wink and a smile, if you have one or the other, pass them on * dragon flies, butter flies, fire flies, you know, lite little things with wings (see fairies) * pink flamingos, I really, really lea pink flamingos * pictures of my kids, can’t get enough of them and they’re so beautiful (just saying) * pictures of my friends and family, always like to see what they’re up to now * needlework, pretty little beads and crazy quilts, it’s so me, the crazy thing I mean * the colors yellow and orange, they’re such happy colors
I know this is a rather long list, but I think, the longer the better. And I always LEA longer and better.
I hope you found something to make you smile today. Tell me something you LEA. Something, anything, one thing, or many many more. It’s all good.
Have fun and Enjoy always, T
I LEA the Spring Equinox.
Today is the first day of spring, the vernal equinox, when daylight and dark are in balance. What a glorious marking of time, to be in balance. Tipping from winter into spring. Breath deep, you can feel the freshness blowing through the air.
To mark this special time, I have another LEA list. LEA for anyone who may not know, means to Like, Enjoy, and Appreciate. I could say I love these things, but I’d like to reserve Love for the bigger things in life, like my two amazing children or my beau, who really is my Lover…
Anyway, allow me to present my Spring Equinox LEA List.
I LEA daffodils. I could almost say I love them; they’re so pretty and bright. They’re such a great color of yellow, so sunny and bright, just perfect for spring time. And such a blessing the way they make their appearance every year around this time. Yes, I LEA daffodils.
I LEA a good cup of fragrant tea, freshly brewed and served in a pretty tea cup. When I was growing up my Mother had a collection of pretty little tea cups that she passed on to me. I still like, enjoy and appreciate the idea of taking a moment to really enjoy a good cup of tea. With just a splash of cream, if you please.
I LEA the way it’s still light out when I leave work at the end of the day and when I get home (if I leave on time!) After spending months going home in the dark, it’s nice to see the green hills in the east glowing in the fading sunlight as the sun sets in the west.
I LEA other people’s blogs, especially the ones that make me laugh or even just put a smile on my face. Or even the ones that make me think a new thought. It’s all grand and I am grateful.
These are just a few thing I lea. I wouldn’t go so far as to say I love these things. Certainly not the way I love my stellar, beautiful, smart kids or my handsome and charming beau, so I believe lea is the more appropriate term to use here.
But most of all, I lea you, because you’re here. You’re here and you took the time to read my blog, so most of all, I lea you. Thanks for making my list. Enjoy always, T
Kinda, sorta, responding to a ‘tag’.
A dear fellow blogging buddy tagged me recently. Linda Vernon got tagged and was so thoughtful, kind, considerate, just down-right-mean enough, to tag me too!! This is my kinda, sorta, response to her tag, since I’ve not good at following all the rules. I’m the kind of persone that when the instructions say “Read all instructions before starting this project.” who basically ignores said instructions.
So for the seven words that describe me (as if) I’ll go with:
Happy - needs no real explanation.
Honest - more often than not.
Friendly – again, more often than not (just being honest here).
A Talker – not afraid to speak my mind.
Generous - I hope, and I try.
Hopeful and Romantic - as in a hopeful romantic.
Okay, now on to some really tough questions, of which I have opted to pick and choose, because this is only a kinda, sorta, response to being tagged.
What keeps me up at night? Besides not being asleep, my beau (for all the right reasons), reading and writing.
Who would I like to be? Me at my best.
What am I wearing right now? A business suit, not very exciting. I should have done this at night!
What scares me? Not being good enough – is that honest enough for you?
There’s more and I hope to get back to finishing this tagging buz – maybe later. One of the requests (requirements) is that I tag seven more bloggers. I want to give this some thought, so it may take some time as – well who knows what can happen while I’m giving it some thought.
Todays’ blog was brought to you by Silly and Foolish, two of my dearest selves.
Enjoy always, T
I lea this list.
In my local newspaper they used to run a regular column called: I love it… I hate it. (They may still run the column but I no longer get that paper so I don’t know.) I like the idea of doing an; I love it list. I do NOT want to do an; I hate it list. Why bother? And I really like the idea of doing a LEA list, because while I may not love all the things that make my list I certainly lea (like, enjoy, appreciate) them. For those of you who may have missed it – this explains LEA.
Here is my fist LEA list of 2012. It may also be my last – who knows – but I do know it’s my first.
I lea my morning cup of coffee. Usually I drink it at work and usually not more than one cup. Unless I’m at a breakfast diner, like Denny’s or IHop, because their coffee cups are so small compared to my regular 20oz cup.
I lea pens that write soft and fine, like the one I used to write the draft for this blog. A pen that writes soft is one where I don’t have to press down hard to get the ink to flow. Flowing ink, like flowing words, is very important to me when I’m writing, as opposed to typing, and then the ink doesn’t matter because it’s not really there.
I lea lists that have more than two things listed because two things doesn’t really seem like a list at all; it just seems like a couple of things. But three things, well now we’re talking.
I lea other people’s funny blogs that make me laugh or even just put a smile on my face. I’m not a big fan of serious blogs, they tend to be too depressing. Kind of like I hate lists. I mean really, why bother. But hey, whatever works for you. (I don’t want to get on anyone’s hate list!)
I lea romance. Of course, that’s why I write about romance. I lea a good relationship and a happily ever after.
These are just a few thing I lea. I wouldn’t go so far as to say I love these things. Certainly not the way I love my stellar, beautiful, smart kids or my handsome and charming beau, so I believe lea is the more appropriate term to use here.
But most of all, I lea you, because you’re here. You’re here and you took the time to read my blog, so most of all, I lea you. Writers without readers are like that tree falling in the forest with no one around. The potentical for sound is there but no one’s listening – or in the case of a writer – reading. Thanks for making my list.
Enjoy always, T
