I think it is ..... and wish it could last into every day of the year..... perhaps that is our task: to keep joy, light, and generosity for the entire year
You send love and joy and generosity out into the world; it doesn't come back. That has gotta feel raw-tten. But my advice, if you want advice, is to keep on keepin' on. The joy is in the giving; the more you keep joy in your heart the more you have to give away. It's magic like that: the more you have and keep the more you have to give away and the more you give the more there is for you.
I am so sorry for the dark place you are in and wish I knew the right words ......
Just an ordinary woman enjoying life in 'phased retirement' and working part time at a great job. I love to cook, am an avid reader; love quilting, sewing, beading on fabric; altering antique books; making fabric postcards; and living by the sea. I have a long list of want-to-do's -- things I want to learn and see and experience. In 2006, I was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and that has been a catalyst for learning valuable life lessons. For a long while it seemed that I had become a 'patient'; it took a lot of work to get back to being me: just an ordinary woman.
I live on the Maine coast where I am blessed with the gift of time to do work that nourishes my soul.
These days, I'm practicing slow. . .reading, thinking, looking. . . giving myself the gift of timelessness to listen, learn, watch and just breath.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog. Notes & comments are welcomed and always appreciated.

Why doesn't that happen for me? I mean i keep joy, light and generosity but i never seem to ever get it back.
Not that i am asking for it, it just never happens for me!!
Whatever!
