There is always something so magical about Summer.It brings many things, but beauty and freedom are top on my list. When was the last time you sat outside and looked around? I mean Really looked around at the world in which you live? I went years without noticing the beauty of our human world. I was so busy being busy that I had no idea our world was so spectacular. I sat outside last night with my 7 yr. old son and marveled at the darkness of the night; lined with the stars in the sky and  fireflies lighting the open space. All of my wonderful childhood memories came flooding back to me. The joy I once felt somehow vanished when I became an adult. I believe that we somehow think that in order to be an adult, we can no longer enjoy our lives like we did as children. Who came up with this idea? We go from having a Wide Open focus on all the magnificence our world has to offer, to having a ridiculously narrow view. We are selling ourselves short! One day we will no longer be here on Earth, as we will have moved on to the other side. It is our time, now, to enjoy ALL that life has to offer. Do not cut yourself off, do not sell yourself short. You do deserve the moon and the stars. You do deserve to have ALL of the wonder and happiness that life has to offer. Happiness is yours for the taking.
