Where once I was happy going, doing and seeing all the time, now I relish the quiet, peaceful times, and especially enjoy taking in and appreciating all the beauty and the comforts that I enjoy in my life. I suppose that's the proper "cycle of life" and we're just realizing how much we've matured. I try to just be more aware of each moment, and try always to carry within my heart, an attitude of gratitude. This helps bring peace, comfort and joy into my life. Merry Christmas Victoria. :)C-ingspotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17744931697050670013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344836954494496679.post-37227186719164199732012-12-13T03:38:50.673-05:002012-12-13T03:38:50.673-05:00Glad to read such wonderful and inspiring thought....Glad to read such wonderful and inspiring thought.

I still love the energy of NYC (for limited amounts of time), but am most at home on my farmette. <br /><br />Lots of folks who visit here freak out at the isolation, lack of shopping centers, fast food and 24 hour conveniences... who needs those when you can see the Milky Way?<br /><br />We can (should be able to) carry peace and tranquility with us wherever we go, but it certainly seems easier without the distractions of the city. :DCalm, Forward, Straighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08360276614916635500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344836954494496679.post-63040866509368466952012-12-10T09:31:40.084-05:002012-12-10T09:31:40.084-05:00Great post.

The Broadway plays, dinner with friends and walking around was exciting. I rarely go in any more unless it's required. I guess I'm content to have peace and serenity with my family and animals. <br /><br />Have a peaceful Christmas season and do just enough to keep yourself where you want to be.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344836954494496679.post-44177728897079648952012-12-10T09:13:56.401-05:002012-12-10T09:13:56.401-05:00What a great post!

When we visited our daughters, who lived there, I loved the electricity but was always very happy to get back to the farm and our animals. As for the holidays...it's not so much about presents anymore...but we do have a big Christmas Eve pot luck for 20-30 friends who have no family in town. It has become quite a tradition. Hope all is well and that your arm is getting better every day.Lori Skooghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03458010787337492501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3344836954494496679.post-29576816865522512452012-12-10T09:00:25.904-05:002012-12-10T09:00:25.904-05:00Funny - when I read the title I thought you were g...Funny - when I read the title I thought you were going to say "ENOUGH - as in - enough of this - and then enjoyed the double use of the word for there being enough, as in not needing more.<br /><br />You are so right about stopping to note that often what we have right in front of us is simply and perfectly enough.<br /><br />Right now I'm glancing out the sliding door and seeing the pony, Cody, and Keil Bay standing in a line by the gate in the paddock. The bare trees are behind them and there is fog so there's a gray, misty washed out look to the landscape but the horses' deep, rich color is there and that image in front of me is so gorgeous - it illustrates perfectly your idea of enough. <br /><br />Hope your December goes slowly and well so you can enjoy every single moment of it!billiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18187141867284800597noreply@blogger.com
