Bliss

Bliss: optimistic happiness and exuberance


I have constantly been intrigued with the word "bliss" for a few years now. To me, it encompases everything that is good in life. Sunny days, flip-flop tans, blossoming trees, hugs, kisses, little hands to hold, jumping for joy, singing loud (and even off-key on silly days). Blissful circumstances are all around me. It is my choice to choose to take that bliss and be joyful. I praise God for the gift of joy that He gives me daily. It's like a present every day. Will I open it? Will I embrace the gift? I am God's joy and delight. Me, a sinner saved by grace. So, I sit, in a dorm room with wood panelling that makes me go nuts most days, pondering. I am one person in this world, yet I was chosen. And, in being chosen, I was given reasons to be blissfully alive in the world.


here is part of my blissful life:

adventures with Patrick.



kisses and giggles

God surely has blessed me. I cannot imagine life without my parents, family, Patrick, friends, and other blessings. I praise Him for allowing me the pleasure of being His child. How will you sieze blissful thoughts today?
