I stood looking out my window the other day, daydreaming about a getaway I couldn't afford. I was praying in my spirit that the Lord would make a way for me to go somewhere relaxing and rejuvenating like a Sedona Spa experience, a Kenya Safari or maybe just a little ocean view room at a Sandals island resort. Well of course all dreamy meanderings of the mind do come to an end. Reality soon reclaimed my wandering thoughts and replanted my feet firmly on the ground where I stood by the window to my front porch. Not long after my airborne thoughts had landed with a thud, I began unpacking the scene just outside my window. This is when I had a great Aha moment (aka TZPe). "How delightful and inviting my patio looks this morning." I thought to myself. I grabbed a cup of chai, my ipod, laptop and a magazine and voila I experienced one of the most beautiful moments of peace and tranquility. I had managed to carve out a niche that was quite simply a beautiful, creative space that money couldn't buy. Following that eye opening gaze out my window, I've been making time to sit out there on my very own patio and refresh my spirit daily. The lesson from my experience is that you can create joy from wherever you are. It's all about our perception of the beauty thats always within close proximity.
