Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡
Happpppppy Wednesday! How’s your week going? Anything exciting happening…
I’ve missed you… so, I thought I’d drop a quick post….that’s some of the fun of being a free spirit, and blogger, you can just sort of pop in whenever the mood strikes…and hope that there’s someone out there. .. (grin)
Well, okay I’ve got to share an aha moment I recently had. L.I.F.E. and all that it brings is an exciting adventure. I know that might sound a little sweet, and corny…but oh well.
It doesn’t matter if we haven’t gone on a luxurious vacation recently…
Maybe it’s been years. ( or never) It might even be that we have been thinking that NOTHING exciting is happening for us.
Perhaps we are even a little bored with our circumstances at this.very.moment. sigh. ..
Repeat: L.I.F.E. ALL of it is an exciting adventure.
Yes, All of it.
The good, bad, pretty, not so pretty, health, sickness, making friends, losing friends, finding more friends..(smile)
You might have already known this…but, since I’m a late bloomer… I’m just getting it.
Perhaps, it also has something to do with choosing the word “Adventure” for my 2015 word…
So, I’ve been doing quite a bit of adventure pondering. For instance, I recently hosted an Angel Tea for a few friends…
and was pleasantly reminded how exciting and fun it is to
create a gathering for people you cherish…
and join together in friendship,
for the shear delight of enjoying an afternoon.
I’ve hosted many parties before…
and yet each one always seems a little different, and special.
It’s like taking a mini trip into a wonderful little world of conversation, fun, laughter…sharing.
And, then just a few days later as I was slicing/dicing away. ..
in our kitchen feeling quite excited about preparing a simple meal…
one that I often make…
Yet, in some ways felt as if I was preparing it for the first time.
I’m wondering if this makes any sense to you dear reader…I have a soulful suspicion that it does.
I’m certain everyday brings something new, exciting, and worthwhile. And, if we’re lucky sometimes we even get to experience sprinkles of sparkle along the way.
The trick is be aware….and whether we realize it or not…it never happens exactly the same way…WOW...now that is what I call an adventure! And, something sweet to ponder on this typical, normal, nothing out of the ordinary middle of the week day…
Xoxo…

Here’s a little video sharing about how I hosted my most recent Angel Tea party. I hope you enjoy it.♡
