Wordless Wednesday: Choosing Joy

Today's Wordless Wednesday embodies the image of 'Choosing Joy When Patience is Tested'. My dear friend, Maggie who blogs at Bliss Ripple: http://networkedblogs.com/tr0Pd is expecting her second baby, Analee, to join her earth-side any moment. To be precise, she is 41 weeks pregnant and actively encouraging her baby to make her appearance sooner rather than later. With the ebb and flow of energy levels and emotions that any woman full of child feels, she chose to find her joy and see if she could still hoop at 41 weeks. And guess what? She can! :)

Too often I let lack of patience get in my way of finding my joy...even when I am not 41 weeks pregnant. I get caught up in how I think things should be and I miss the opportunity to enjoy the moment as it is. Maggie's image reminded me that we ALWAYS have the choice to make life joyful.


Maggie basking in the power of her mama-baby loveliness.
Namaste~

  1. Lovely and empowering! How cool to be hooping at 41 weeks pregnant. I've often wondered how possible it is to hoop throughout pregnancy (I didn't learn about hooping until after pregnancy.) Here's hoping that little one makes his/her appearance soon!
