The top was down. The air was fresh and warm with all the aromas of summer evenings. The wind was blowing through our hair. We were hooting and hollering like teenage girls.
I closed my eyes and drank it all in.
How often do I truly feel carefree? I didn’t realize how rare it was until I sat in that moment and felt my mind let go of all the obligations in my life and let my heart dance with the freedom of the open road.
I felt something. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. I was too busy laughing my head off and scheming ideas with my girls to name it right then, but later as I settled down from a perfect evening, I was aware of what it was.
Contentment. Pure. Simple. Perfect.
Thank you Lord, for this evening, for these amazing friends, for uncontrollable laughter and convertibles
and warm evening air.
Thought for the Day
Laugh as often as you can! Don’t worry about what people think. We far too often miss the FUN in life because we hold ourselves back from jumping in with both feet. I am grateful for friendships that allow me to be silly, hysterical, giddy, crazy and just plain ME!
