"When they tell me I am too old to do something, I attempt it immediately" Pablo Picasso
In the space of less than three days I was asked more than three times "Don't you think you're a little old for"...... My answer to that is NO!! Absolutely not! And furthermore, how DARE you even ask me that! So there!
Seriously, no one should ever be too old to enjoy life. Life is made up of so many wonderful things that fill the world with magic and color. When we stop noticing those things the world gets a little more grey and life seems a little less magical. Recovery is hard work and I, for one, need a little magic in my life.
Below is my little list of where I have found the magic this week. My challenge to you is to take a few minutes, hold your breath, count to ten and look for the magic around you.
* Go through a car wash. Close your eyes and listen to the water as it runs over and around you.
* Watch a dog sleep & dream
* Listen to the wind blow and imagine where it is going
* Follow a sunbeam
* Try out all the crayons in the box - twice
* Watch cartoons in your PJs
* Bubbles
* Listen to or read a classic children's story (My fave is The Wind in the Willows)
