Happy by Donna Robinson

January 9, 2021 by ElderChicks

Yesterday I had a strange feeling overcome me! Happiness. Complete happiness amidst riots, COVID etc. Did I dare experience this feeling in a troubled world? Would the heavens above splat me a good one? Have no idea but I could not help the surge of happiness I was feeling! It had been an ordinary school day, our new white board was ready for Monday’s class of bustling 2 and three years old, yet I left school with this surging, almost unrecognizable, feeling of complete happiness and with all the world’s woes, I questioned that happiness. Actually questioned a feeling of complete happiness! And today? Yes! Woke up with a smile that I will be sharing with my grandson today at the horse farm.

Donna, This is just the tonic that hits the spot today, reminding me that joy and sorrow can co-exist. You’ve got me thinking about those bright, innocent minds and a happy boy at a horse farm. Thanks so much for reminding us of joy.

Dear Donna, It is so amazing to hear and share your exuberance amidst the world’s woes….I admire that raised energy of life you have….It is incredible too, that you continue your way of life and don’t let the woes get you….There are so few remarkable and resilient people like you and I……we are strong women of Mighty Endurance….We pull ourselves up by the bootstraps and continue with life…We will never give in to the old tactics of Fear and Doubt or Tyranny in a woken up America….because “We are the People”……Blessings ….Ibu Miri

  Thank you. After reading your reply I want to do a 100 sit ups, well maybe 10 at this point!
  I think with all the world’s woes that people forget life is a gift. Enjoy it all. 🌿🌻🌿
