04-09-23 Joy in the simple things

 Happy Easter.

I was thinking this morning, about how we miss the simple things in life. Yesterday I saw these tulips and thought should I get them? This morning I said I am going to go get them, if there still there. They were. How we have all these opportunity to just be in the moment. Drinking coffee or tea outside on a beautiful sunny day or just listening to the birds, to how we spent our days as a child on Easter. Egg hunts, Easter hats and putting on best clothes to mark the day. Trying not to eat so much candy that got stomach aches, or parent said you will spoil your dinner.  Going to church or not, for this day we knew that it was spent with our family. 

Just the simplicity of the small things. As I text my children and brother wishing a Happy Easter and wondering what gives them joy in a moment? When the tulips that I brought seem like they were adding to the moment that I was feeling. It was not the running around, or cooking all day or having company, or not. Having to get somewhere, do something. Just the joy of the joy in the moment. 

Having a wonderful and joyful day today. Enjoy the simple things and simple moments.
