Today I spent time with my God-daughter. She is also my name-sake: Leina-Deedra.
She is almost six years old and always reminds me how easy it is to find joy. That’s the thing about kids, they haven’t made life complicated yet.
They can find joy in simple things. Coloring. Imagining. Telling a story. Even watching youtube channels of other kids playing in parks.
As adults, we often forget that. We get so bogged down by life, and the stresses of life, we forget to find joy – or even notice it exists all around us just waiting to be plucked.
Remember to take a moment. Spell the flowers. Listen to the birds. Watch children, any children, play.
Your life will be greatly improved just by experiencing those fleeting moments. Even more so if you can make them more often.
These videos are all about bringing awareness to the #LoveGlassesRevolution founded by my close friends Tara Ijai & the CHOICE we all have in every moment to see the world around us through the lens of love, empowerment & joy.
Should this 30-day challenge speak to you & you’d like to join the party:
1. Decide
2. Choose something that speaks to you that is reflective of love (it can be a video, quotes, art, random acts of kindness, reading a page of your favorite book, etc.)
3. Share it! We could all use more of that! The gift is in both the sharing and receiving.
There is no limit to what we can accomplish together if we share a small part of ourselves with each other. That is love. That is being alive.
