What in your life makes you happy?
This month at the Muncie OnLocation, Dialogue discussed the things in life that keep us going–the things we love, bring a smile to our face, and bring light into our souls. It could be something silly, like a new bag of Skittles or vintage Nintendo. Or it could be something a little more series–a memory of a friend, feeling safe, or the quiet that comes with prayer.

Today I thought the sunshine was extremely awesome. And the blue skies, beautiful! So i was out soaking up as much vitamin D as possible. I had coffee with a dearly loved friend. I enjoyed shopping and dinner out with my love of almost 20 years. Also, I really liked having avocado on my California burger.
-The moment in life when perfect clarity erupts from total confusion
-Being part of something bigger than myself
-The total serenity you find when you’re alone – on purpose.
-The total serenity you find when you’re not alone – because other people care about you.
-Finding your way back to the trail after you are sure you are going to wander in the wilderness for the rest of your life.
A relaxing coffee with my bud and a movie with the sweet middle nephew. Just the two of us.
