It just seems to me that our primary purpose is to make the most of the days given us and to ENJOY it. "To glorify God and enjoy Him forever." Him. His creation. The misfit people. The dusty landscape and therefore dusty cars we own. The unexpectedly cold or hot weather. Rain on our parade. An unexpected death. An unexpected life. An unexpected boon. An unexpected boondoggle. An unfulfilled promise. An undeserved gift.
Now I remember why this might be going through my head today. I recently spent time with a baby. Happy and content one minute, crying for a small need the next. And a video I saw this morning of a baby laughing at paper being torn. Just paper. Hilarious, to one baby, now to anyone who sees the baby laughing.
Let's all laugh at paper being torn. Let's cry when our friends feel pain. Let's look for more chances to see the joy in what is right in front of us. No regrets. OK just a few. plan for the future but don't fret over it. And sometimes just stop to make a record of your time here. Take a picture, draw a picture, write a poem, write a note. Then look back and remember how blessed you are.
