Joy Dare: October 25, 2021 - 3 GIFTS ENJOYING

Next month it will be three years since I was laid off from my job of almost 16 years. That was a gift. I knew it then but today as I look at the gratitude topic, I can say I am absolutely enjoying this season of life and relishing each day. Well, maybe not some of the 2020/2021 days so much! But, I am enjoying the freedom to freelance, write, discover new opportunities, and meet people along the way.

Laughter. I have had some seasons when I didn't laugh a lot. I'm currently enjoying its return. I'm so thrilled to be laughing again. I used to watch sitcoms (funny ones) and not smile much. Now I find myself hitting the pause button because I'm laughing out loud, in a room alone. I laugh heartily when I'm talking with my friends. It feels so good to have this as part of my life again. Please, don't ever stop laughing.

I just realized that I'm enjoying the upgrades I made to my workspace. When the neck issues came up last year, I perfected my home creative/office space by arranging things in an ergonomic fashion, hoping to protect myself from future injuries. With that, came a few other layout changes and some added tools like whiteboards. Even a little change in the decor items. All of this has made it a wonderful space I enjoy and I'm grateful I did that.
