LIVING AND LAUGHING

living and laughing.......

Every time, I come back to my blogs....I'm amazed at the fact that I've managed to stand up once again and think of the future.

I'm certain that there will still be both wise and conflicted blogs about grief coming from me here and there. But, I am going to try to share during my happy and up times....And I do have those---Most of the time, I manage to keep the happy facade in place even when the inside is hurting.    I promise.  I must have happy moments because I'm living.  Living is for doing.  Living is for smiling.  Living is for sharing.  Living is what the future becomes in each of us.

So,  what was the funniest thing at which I laughed today....I laughed while I cut a water melon and ate pieces as I put them in the bowl.  I laughed because a new friend invited a few of us to go line dancing tonight....not on a MONDAY after being busy all week end!!   But, again, I may go on another Monday.  LIVE!!!  Laugh.  And, yes I laugh at the crazy freezing office in which I work where people don turtle necks, parkas, hoodies, and other UN-Hawaiian garments.  It is like the Ice Age is happening in this building in Hawaii.

i listened to oldies on Pandora while I worked.  Why didn't I create Pandora???? It is the most fabulous app.  And I had to remember to NOT sing or hum along because it was a work environment.  I laughed because I thought to myself--What would happen if I just burst out singing with these ear buds in my ears.....Now, that would create laughter.  Definitively.

Are you smiling from your mouth, eyes, and heart?  Smile.  Laugh.
