Morning Thinks (thoughts)

     Well, we're halfway through winter. And what a beautiful winter its been. Have you thought, "I wish it was summer!" yet to yourself? Ha. Silly question. I'm learning, though. There's so much to be joyful about, even when its so cold your boogers freeze the instant you step outside.
     I feel like this winter, I've lived a lot more than I ever have, because I've been able to let my dreams and desires guide what I do. And in many ways, I feel like I've missed out on life. I remember those fourteen hours a week I'm not dancing...and I think, "EEK!"
     But I'm not here to be melancholy. God's been perpetually trying to cheer me up, which is one interesting thing thats been happening to me lately. I think God wants us to live in a state of constant praise. That was a foreign concept for me two months ago. But now I see how it is not only possibly, but highly desirable.
      And fun.
   
      On a less philosophical note, I've gotten ensnared in Once Upon A Time. Again. *rolls eyes*
      But what can I say. Its captivating! And surprisingly moral. Their principals aren't all mixed up, and...well, just plain wrong, like some other shows I've seen. Like this one guy (who was married) was having an affair with this other girl, and they actually put aside how "complicated" the situation was and said, "Hey, this is wrong...we have to stop seeing each other." And I was like, "YES!"
   
     I am in a happy place. I have God, a puzzle, and a treadmill. *contented smile* And now, I'm off to go watch Once Upon a Time, run on that treadmill and fold towels.

Not all at once, obviously.
