....When I am sitting in my comfy place, on my couch, or propped up in my bed....
....After I have just read a beautiful, or funny, or melancholy story....
....When my Charlie Brown-esque Christmas Tree isn't lit
(because, well, I have to redo the lights so that the plug-in
is not buried somewhere in the middle of the tree)....
....When I'm contemplating packing my bags for a trip to see
My Melissa, two weeks before I have to leave....
....When my face is hurting because I've been laughing....
....When I'm wearing my Goodwin t-shirt, and I'm reminded that I have friends, wonderful, best of the best friends, nestled in various places around the country....
....When the day I've been waiting for arrives.....
....When events are planned....
....I'm in the middle of a messy, creative project....
....I'm talking to Blanche....
....When fun secrets are in the air, along
with a bit of mystery and wonder....
....When I hear my favorite song on the radio....
....After a phone call....
....Looking through pictures....
....I just ignore the fear and take the jump....
....I have put pen to paper (or electronic ink? to screen?)....
....because it involves more laughing, and talking, and singing,
and dancing,
twirling, and LIVING....
twirling, and LIVING....
....that I am reminded that I am so very, very blessed. And that life is good. And that God is great. And that it's not over. And that each day is a new chance to be more fabulous, and more amazing....
....when I make a choice to be happy, and at peace....
Lookin' forward to the journey- how about you come along?

ok - need a pic of you in your goodwin shirt!
Ok- I'll work on it! It's old school though (Literally old, from school!). I wanna be on the list if there's ever a new Goodwin edition. I was thrown in the trash one time- might that count for something? ;)
