I don’t know about you, but I’m taking life too seriously lately. I want to go back to preschool.
Yesterday I visited my son, Andy’s, preschool class. As I parked my minivan and walked across the street to his little school my mind was distracted with some serious worries that are going on in my life right now, until I heard the screams of joy.
My mind was awakened from it’s state of worry when I heard YAY!!!! WOOHOO!!! and I looked up to see a class of 4 year olds running out to the playground with reckless abandon. Those kids had no cares in the world. They were thrilled beyond compare that they had the chance to go outside for 20 minutes to swing, jump, and spin around on the merry go round until they got dizzy.
Life can get to a serious pace as an adult that can made you dizzy. From work responsibilities, kid activities, and financial burdens…it can really get me stressed out. You can let it get to you or change your attitude and treat life it as an adventure. Maya Angelou once said “Life is pure adventure…the sooner we realize that we can treat life as art.”
I dare you today as you walk outside of your home or office to let out a little YIPPEE!!! Skip, Jump, do a little Irish jig 🙂 Start painting your canvas of life with some brighter colors…

I think I will do my Irish Jig today! Smile and throw your arms up in the air! Give every one of those worries to God.

Every day we hear your sweet voice and start the day with inspiration that you give us through the air But we never thought there would ever be a melancholy note in one corner of your heart It is all the work of the satan May I encourge you to push yourself up In all things give thanks unto the Lord We would pray for your family Thanks
