Bumblebee Bliss

bright yellow sirens
calling the bees to come feast
on liquid sunshine

Fellow blogger Yeka, from IT’S ALL ABOUT LOVE blog, wrote a fun post today about perspective. It reminded me, in a fun way, that we have the power of perspective in choosing how to approach each new day. I’m going to join Yeka and the bees, and pop my happy pill today. And like Yeka, I acknowledge that there will be challenges certainly. And still, how our day progresses is hugely dependent upon how we choose to look at our day. What filters, meaning, beliefs, and responses do we choose and ascribe to simple events. A good example is when it rains. Many people instantly decide it’s a bad day simply because of the weather. When you have a challenge, see if you can find some good in it, or the faith that good will come of it, or simply focus on something else that makes you feel good.
And remember to keep nurturing yourself to help you feel good and feed your mind, body, and soul. Spending time in nature is always good for me. I’ve been missing my gardens and flowers, so I chose to honor them by posting this photo from the garden I had years ago, and remember all the joy that came from growing flowers.
What pill are you choosing today? I choose the happy pill!
Happy pill indeed 😉
