Don't you hate that the bad fights very hard to overshadow the good. Two days ago, we went to a wonderful organic farm, filled mostly with coffee, but scattered with anything imaginable. The owner of the farm was well educated in agriculture and astrology, but delusional in economics as he advocated to go back to the barter system. This beautiful day under the sun and surrounded by fresh life was then overshadowed by a creep with a broom.
My momma would always say, "Don't let the devil steal your joy." If you know Momma Swan, I'm sure you can easily picture these words escaping her lips, haha. It's a silly line, but I find truth in it and tonight my joy is replenished through loving embraces, good company on a walk in the rain, a nice talk over a warm drink. I am thankful. These wonderful gifts will not be stolen.
Bendiciones para ti,
Hannah
Chase that joy with a broom, girly.
