Best Things In Life

I hope you had a blessed Christmas Day.  I hope you were surrounded by the people you love and cherish, I hope you felt loved and appreciated and I hope you continue to feel the spirit of Christmas throughout the year.

Most of all, I hope you made memories that you will treasure for a lifetime.  Making memories with the ones you love is what life is all about.  Whether you are a homebody or you travel, making memories is the essence of a happy life.

The best things in life are the people you love, the places you’ve seen, and the memories you’ve made along the way. ~Unknown

Think about it.  When you look back at your life, what do you think of first?  A memory with a parent, a child, another loved one?  What comes to mind first?  Do you think of a specific Christmas or a certain time in the year?

When I look back and let childhood memories wash over me, I can remember what I was wearing on specific days, what my mother and grandmother were doing, what my horses were doing.  For some memories, I remember the minute details.  For other memories, I don’t necessarily remember the minute details, but I remember exactly the feeling I had.  The same is true for adult memories.  What would we do without our memories?

I have traveled extensively and I’ve seen a lot of beautiful places.  But what sticks in my mind about each and every place I’ve traveled to isn’t a specific Country or City.  I made memories with the people I traveled with and the new people I met while there.  That’s what sticks in my mind.

I am so thankful that I am surrounded by people who love me, that I have been able to see some beautiful places and, most of all, I am thankful for all the beautiful memories I have made along the way.

Sending you blessings of love, laughter and gratitude,
Charity
