Generous JOY is my focus today .. I was very mindful of how others JOY made me feel . I think it is infectious when your around a GENEROUSLY JOYFUL person.. Makes you have a little pep in your step dont you think .. I am going to be very aware of the JOY that I show others and Radiate to them .........LOVE that Radiating JOY .. hey COINING that phrase ...
Now with my camera in TOW....as it always is .. They dont call me Poppy for nothing ..
I thought ..HMMMM day 4 of my challenge of taking a photo that makes me feel ...and writing about it .......................SO I discovered instagram today ( I am Technically Challenged) So you know ..and for me to upload and apps and all that .. HEY NO small deal for this RUSTY Pearl ...
This is the picture that I took .............
Loved it ....
GOD's Gifts are just everywhere. I loved the beautiful handmade Shell Art !!
Used from Nature and colored just right .......
Now I would love to read something from my book I am reading. HOPE that you enjoy it !!!
No Matter WHAT your circumstances may be.. YOU can find joy in MY PRECENCE.. On some days JOY is Generously Strewn along your life path, glistening in the sunlight .. On days like that , being content is as simple as breathing the next breath or taking the next step. Other days are overcast and gloomy, you feel the strain of the journey, Which seems endless Dull Gray ROCKS greet your gaze and cause your feet to ache YET JOY is still attainable, Search for its as for hidden treausre...
I began to feel JOY after reading this in my book.. I was feeling today the strain of a certain JOURNEY .. and then was reminded of my friends JOY and care .. Generous JOY was way better than the alternative (negative nelly stuff ) ...SO thank you JESUS for giving me joy when sometimes it seems our path is stony ..BUT as I was reminded yesterday if the path is stony ..YOU are sure to give me GOOD SHOES (hey who cant smile at that )
Isnt that just powerful and full of HOPE
With that I will close and say Have a beautiful Evening. .. I just wanted to say hello as I have been so blessed by so many blogs. I really ENJOY it so much ..Thank you

I'm 100% with you Sherry.. Being joyous is infectious. It's hard to be a grump around someone who's truly happy.. Maybe it's because those types of people just gravitate towards each other. Kind of like misery loves company and vice versa :)
