Joie de Vivre!

March 2, 2023March 3, 2023 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 10 Comments

I’m walking around a parking lot.   Thinking.  I’ve flown away again. I’ve flown to find piles of hurricane ruin still standing. No roof. No home.  A parking lot walk is a good option in this restless place.  I walk around my car which is piled high with my personal belongings. They were rescued last … Continue reading Joie de Vivre!

Salvaging Life

November 13, 2022November 13, 2022 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 3 Comments

Sorry I’ve missed you the past few weeks. I’ve been absorbed in salvaging.   Webster defines salvaging as: The act of saving something extracted (as from rubbish) as valuable or useful. It seems I’ve been doing a lot of salvaging in the last two years. I’ve relied on God  to help me find good stuff … Continue reading Salvaging Life

Sometimes I walk  a windswept beach. An orange ball dips. Golden light settles on the horizon. Sunset prize over, other beach walkers move back inside.  I’m alone. I walk and let the dark shore cloak me. Peace pulls at my toes.  Weary waves sing me home.  Sometimes I walk down 21 stairsteps to a mosaic … Continue reading Don’t Worry: Walk!

When in Doubt…Dance

June 1, 2022September 9, 2022 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 8 Comments

(****This is the second post in my series on How to Cope with Tough Times****) I’m not a dancer but I love to dance.   Most of my movements are deemed goofy by my kids.   As a matter of fact, for about 20 years, while they were home, I  relegated dancing to the basement.  … Continue reading When in Doubt…Dance

Whimsical

May 22, 2022September 9, 2022 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 8 Comments

I can’t say the word: “whimsical” without smiling. There’s something about the word.  Whimsy is like a joyful secret no one knows but you.   ✅ When times are tough, it doesn’t hurt to be a bit whimsical.    ✅ Celebrate the silliness of the senses.   ✅ Notice the music of the mundane.  ✅ … Continue reading Whimsical
