Embrace the Joy in your now moments -Eat the Snow ❄️

I started out wanting to be this blogger with a certain purpose but I’m finding that my purpose is to just be real for that moment, that day, and just blog my heart. ❤️.

Maybe someday I’ll look back and find out I did this blogging all wrong? But I’m a spontaneous person by nature so maybe I’ll say “it was ok, I was just being me.”

So, this morning I had this knock on my door, my dog, Tugboat, was going crazy? I thought some person had come to plow my driveway, but I opened up my door to this:

I laughed so hard. They have a barn with warm straw but they like the snow.

I found joy and laughter in my Tugboat’s interaction with these goats. And that set the tone for my whole day. I observed the fact she stopped temporarily to eat the snow which brought her great happiness. She forgot for a moment about all of her barriers and chose that moment to experience happiness.

What an “ah-ha” moment for me? How often I look at all the barriers keeping me from future happiness and forget the happiness right at that moment! I need to embrace my “now Joy” moments. My barriers will still be there. I have lots of hard work ahead of me. But I want to be this person….experiencing “joy moments” every day. It’s not just about me, I want to be contagious in my joy too.

I want to find happiness in eating snow, even when the goats of life, with those dangerous looking horns are standing in my way. That’s what I want. And a side note. I’m not going to be be able to make every single person happy with what I see as joy moments. Some people- they won’t embrace eating snow with me while the horned goats are nearby, but that’s ok too.
