Thanks...

It's that time of year when we Americans tend to take time to think about what we're grateful for.

It's a time of thanks and a time of reflection. And a time to eat a lot of Turkey, Ham and Potatoes. It's the time of year when everyone forgives themselves for over indulging "Well, it's the holidays," and it's the time of year when many of us go to spend time with family that we don't see any other time of the year.

What am I Thankful for?
              I couldn't possibly list all the wonders in my life, so I'll focus on my favorite things...family, friends and men.

Being connected to people is the most gratifying and amazing aspect of being human.

I've been lucky enough to have the most extraordinary relationships in all areas of my life. I believe it's because I'm open to everything and look for the good in all. I've met incredible people from the men in my bed; to the friends I work and play with; to the family I was born into. Even the bad ones are good and provide me with rich experiences and wisdom I would otherwise not have gained.

The following is a slide show of some who are special to me and without which, my life would not be nearly as full of magic. (RSS Readers: go here.)

 

I've always felt that I am extremely lucky and blessed. I'm certain that life continually gives me more gifts than I've earn and I truly appreciate it.

Life is Magical

Bluewand_3 I have been blessed with a charmed life - I really believe that all my experiences have given me the opportunity to confirm what I already know . . . which is: life is magical.

There are precious gifts in each moment, relationship and experience.

Even though I've been through unthinkable tragedies, suffered great sacrifice, encountered terrific loss, dashed dreams and a broken heart (many times over), I wouldn’t change anything in my life for anything. These rich experiences have taught me great lessons and given me the gift of appreciation for the marvels, joy and triumphs that I have been granted.

My life journey has brought me to a place of wonder and awe. I believe that everything works out. . . so it does.

There is magic everywhere, if I only pay attention.

Making Movie Magic

Camera_3_2

Life is like a movie. If we live it right, everything is possible. We can do anything and have it all, just like the movie star.

I am the star of my life and I live it accordingly. Yes, that means it's full of drama and adventure and (of course) a beautiful soundtrack.
