Yes, I Did Just Crack Myself Up……..You Would Crack Up Too If You Lived In My Brain

 

Do any of the rest of you have random thoughts that make you chuckle but are too weird to share? I live life with an ever present narrative going on in my mind. There are a few of you that i trust with this oddity but even you are spared the constant barrage of sometimes inappropriateness. 

It is entertaining and there are times when I just have to laugh out loud. Others probably wonder what this crazy lady is giggling about. Natalie always says this is what she loves most about her mom/me. That I am off the wall silly. But of course like any respectable senior citizen, I have my serious side as well. 

Don’t you think we all need to have a bit more laughter and goofing off in our lives? I do. There is so much in the world to fret over. Most of it is out of our control. But we need to pay attention to how we live life and how we treat others. But there is also a time to just enjoy the simple sillies of life. I know my grandkids bring me to a place of utter joy and away from the concerns of the world. Watching Mayve take her first steps, Caleb telling his mom to give him space, Auggie recognizing my voice on the phone, Millie  sharing her latest craft over FaceTime, all just light up my day. You could say they crack me up too.

 Today spend an appropriate amount of time being an adult. Also take time to drink lemonade on the back porch swing or connect with that friend who makes you belly laugh. Better yet, share a few of your wild ideas and thoughts with someone else who will appreciate them. 

In Him,

Joyful
