Enjoying Life

We incarnated on this Earth to learn, experience, and enjoy life. The latter part, enjoying life, seems to be something most of us forgot due to conditioning by society – and much more.

Being retired, I am fortunate to be able to rest and plan my life as I please – away from the daily hustle and bustle. I can sleep in, do what I want, and just relax. But, ……

That does not work for me which probably does not come as a surprise to people who know me well.

So, on June 5 we are getting a new family member, the wonderful Luna, who is a Golden Retriever puppy <3. We are looking very much forward to that – and sleeping in, just relaxing etc. will be put on hold for a very long time, I imagine. Up and out during the night, walks several times a day in all kinds of weather, puppy training with other puppies once a week (in all kinds of weather) will be my new reality. I will be exhausted – and I cannot wait…….

I know it is going to be tough for a few months, but I realized that I need more love, laughter, and fun in my life, not to mention a purpose. As a dog is x kilos of unconditional love, I could not imagine a better way to improve my life.

We already have two cats, Bumle and Tulle, and I hope they will receive their new sister with love <3– or at least accept her to begin with (cat style), and love her a little later <3.

With everything going on in the world right now, I want to concentrate even more on high energy and spirit, staying close to home, enjoying friends and family and neighbors, growing a vegetable garden (my husband’s job, God bless him), enjoying nature including a beach and a forrest near by.

I am convinced that is the best strategy for me right now.

What is your best strategy for coping with what is going on in the world right now?
