Through The Tulips Words of 'Wiz'dom

When I look at the title of this post it makes me smile. I’m grateful for everything. The pleasant and the ‘not so pleasant’ because it all serves to teach me something.

We spent some time earlier this week with Marcel’s aunt- She recently turned 80, and we were unable to make it to her party, so we decided to go spend some time with her this week. Our intent was to stay only a few hours- but it was so great, and we were having so much fun that the time flew and when I looked at my watch- four hours had passed! Needless to say- we definitely plan to go again. She’s such a joy and I adore spending time with her. I also enjoyed hearing some of her stories, plus her sharing some of her wisdom with us- at 80 one has compiled a lot of wisdom, you know?

Work has been great- my column is going great- I continue to learn and challenge myself outside of the box- and by doing so- I continue to grow- that makes me happy.

With the challenges of this year- it took a while for me to find my balance- but once I did- I haven’t looked back- I count my blessings every-single-day. Are all days perfect? Not even close- but what I do know, is that I’m blessed, WE are blessed and I don’t take one single moment of that for granted.
