JANUARY 2017

Today’s post comes with a request. I ask that before the day ends you get up & dance. Go on you can do it. ~Marcia

As I contemplate the beginning of a new year, I feel excited.

I had actually written  another post for today.

However, I tossed it when earlier this week it snowed on my sweet, beautiful coast. A rarity I’ve been told.

I grabbed this rarity by the horn and decided to write a different post.

Somehow the magic of a snowy day reminded me of the preciousness of life. how quickly it comes, is lived, and then goes. 

Ironically I had also been pondering about resolutions for the year. also another rarity 

It seems as if that’s what the new year challenges us to do.

At the heart of a resolution is the desire to have this year be even better than the last.

I have to say I tossed those resolutions out too.

I’ve become an expert tosser 

Instead, thanks to my snowy day I realized that what I really want in 2017 was to live a simpler & yet more abundant life.

So instead of resolution, I choose to re~commit to what brought me to this small town on the beautiful Oregon coast

where it is snowing

which was a deep desire to live a life of beauty.

Sounds pretty simple.

I’m thinking that’s the magic of living in the moment.

and a little snow.

Wishing you a wonderful January!
