We have had an enormous amount of rain and I for one nearly forgot what that orange ball in the sky looked like. The sun just gives us so much warmth. This did get me thinking though on how we can make our own sunshine for those long stretches when we are deprived of it. I have realized that it really is a sate of mind.
Think about it when we are home and it rains, we may get grumpy, we may think of all the ways it has ruined our plans. Think about a time though you were on a GREAT vacation and it rained, I know I have been in that position and my outlook has been this, hey we are here let's still make the best of it and have a good time and you know what we always do. The sky may not be vivid blue, you may have to alter your plans but nonetheless I bet you enjoy whatever you choose as an alternate. You cannot pour perfume on others without getting a few drops on yourself!
In the words of Abraham Lincoln " most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be"
I am going to be more mindful of making the best of rainy days because, how can I say I love thunderstorms and then be upset if it is raining?
I am inspired by the sunshine, however when it rains I don't have to go out and water all my beautiful flowers.
Be who YOU want the world to be!
My husband doesn't know it yet but this is my inspiration for a summer project
