The Sweetness of Life and Friendship
If you're struggling with the hardships of life
try to find little ways to ease your burden today.
Take a break from your struggles and
engage in a little play.
Look for your life's sweet spot
and try to live in it a little each day.
Find a way to sweeten your friendships
with kindness, love and play
even if it's just for today .
So What's in Your Life's Sweet Spot?
Try looking for the answer in words that rhyme with "SWEET".
Here are mine to get you started thinking about yours:
My Sweet Spot
making my home cozy and neat
cooking for others delectable eats
going for hikes and moving my feet
reaching out to others by making them treats
gifting my friends honey or artwork because they're so sweet
Engaging a new person on the trail to
enjoy a brief moment of a meet and greet
Letting my Honey know he makes my life complete
Taking a moment to color and draw to let my mind slow down and retreat
Listening to music with my favorite beat
Enjoying a moment in the sun and garden to soak up the heat
Taking a nap in my favorite seat
Sleeping with the smell of freshly laundered sheets
Making a batch of sourdough bread with wheat
Listening on walks for the sound of bird tweets
Hearing the pitter-patter on the trail of my dog's feet
Watching my dog enjoy a play date
in the ultimate fun meet and greet
Spending time with my Peeps
Making an inviting environment for my kids and grandkids
when they come for a visit so we can make delectable eats and treats
and move our feets, listen for bird tweets, and generally retreat to sweet
moments of family life together--Isn't that neat?
Love one another
Love your peeps
Live each day to the fullest by filling it with life's little sweets.
Fill it with honey, friendship and plenty of sweet and fun treats.
A Sweet Spot of Friendship
Today's sweet spot thoughts were instigated by my dear friend, Debi Blair. When she took a trip to the coast she found a man selling clover honey and she remembered that was my favorite type of honey so she brought me home a quart of the sweet stuff.
Today's post is dedicated to Debi for being such a good and thoughtful friend who sweetened my day.
