December Days

What does December mean to you? A few things we often think of: cold, snow, fires, hot drinks, cuddling under blankets. They all sound so warm and fuzzy and nice right?!  But it can be so cold that it hurts to breath, the snow can stop travel plans, the fire can be tiring to start each day, the hot drinks can burn your tongue and sometimes you are by yourself under the blanket. December also means Christmas and all that comes with it, the tree, the lights, the food, the family. And yet sometimes Christmas disappoints those who have fond memories of childhood Christmases.
It is not a magical time of year. It is a time of year, just like any other time of year when we can make a choice to see the beauties around us that remind us that there is always something special in each day.

Props to Evelin the photographer of this one :)

For a stormy day

Laugh today

Laughter heals

It reaches inside your heart bringing pure happiness to fill every crevice.

It leaves no room for the discouragement of things in the past

It brings sunshine and it spreads to those around you

And sometimes it just can't be stopped :)

I love those moments
the ones when you are trying desperately just to breath between fits of laughter, 
you feel your muscles in your stomach hurting and there are little teardrops falling down your cheeks
~ just because you laughed :)


"The most wasted of all days is one without laughter" ~ e.e.cummings
