{my attempt to capture 52 photos that represent joy - my word for 2010}
realizing that you are just not in the mood for rain-soaked hiking, even though you drove the hour to the coast to do so, but enjoying the drive and the day in a different way instead.
pure joy.

so nice to enjoy what is, instead of wish for what isn't.
i've been mentally complaining about the weather here... this post feels like a "oh honey" rather than a "you butthead." that might not even make sense, but it was just what i needed.
and i love those little raindrops jumping for joy. thank you.
My favorite people are the ones who can roll with it; who can absorb a change in plans and happily enjoy whatever surprises life brings them. People like you.
what a great perspective - one that we need lots of reminding about. at least I do! I've been thinking a lot about the whole "want what you have" concept lately. perfect - I'm glad you found the joy!
