He is with me through whatever happens. We support each other and all those we love. This synergy is a powerful force. It serves us well! 4 Reply Ose2 weeks agoOseSeeing my friends being happy and well after a relaxing and recovering break from all routines; the delight when perceiving the roses and other beautiful flowers and the delicate fragrance they gently release into the world; when listening to music played or sung together inspired by the heart. 4 Reply Don Jones2 weeks agoDon JonesA finished project in the workshop, harvest time in the vegetable garden, Bella’s (my Kelpie dog) welcome home, realizations of the Divine (which are all of the foregoing). 4 Reply Hot Sauce2 weeks agoHot SauceThe presence of my mom, my dog, and my cat bring about a beaming smile for me. 4 Reply Charlie T2 weeks agoCharlie TSo many things make me smile. Two days a week, I’m a chauffeur. I mostly work for very wealthy people. And sometimes I’m invisible to them. Yesterday, while waiting for clients, a small child (maybe 5 or 6), just getting home from school, saw me standing there, and gave me a little smile and a wave while going into her house. A few minutes later, she came outside, went to a nearby flower bed, picked a teeny tiny daisy, and gave it to me. Made my day and makes me smile now. 8 Reply Michele2 weeks agoMicheleawwwww! how cute 0 Reply Penny2 weeks agoPennyGuaranteed smile maker for me is my beloved dog greeting at the door when I return as though I have been gone for a long time. 5 Reply Jenn67012 weeks agoJenn6701Being around the people I love.

Hearing something good has happened for one of my children or my husband. Our cat being goofy and playful. Right now he’s chasing his tail so he has brought a smile to my face. Sunshine! Right now my part of the world has an atmospheric river dumping a lot of rain. We have a break right now as I type this but the grey clouds overhead remind me the forecast says heavy rain for a few more days. I’ve lived in rainy western Washington for 10 years after spending my whole life in eastern Washington/north Idaho where we had more sunny days. Walking to the bay that isn’t far from our house and spotting a seal in the water. It doesn’t happen often so it’s always a treat.

People bring me smiles too. I’m finding more moments of healing via Nature. 5 Reply Antoinette2 weeks agoAntoinetteMy kids and my dog ! Any nature – flowers blooming and the ocean waves.

And a negative COVID19 test! We were with friends one evening last week, and two came down with really serious cases of COVID. We all got tested and were negative! 6 Reply sunnypatti2 weeks agosunnypattiMy sister that lives in California is here for the month with her 4 1/2 year old son. Because of covid, we hadn’t seen each other in person for over two years. They surprised me at work the other day, and we all gathered at our parents’ last night for a birthday dinner for my brother. Having us all together sharing food, stories, hugs and laughter has me beaming right now. I can’t wait to have them stay with us next week. 7 Reply Michele2 weeks agoMicheleEnjoy your time with your sister and nephew! I just enjoyed seeing my girls.
