That Fluttery Butterfly Feeling

Waking up with the feeling that something good is about to happen -- that is the secret to life.

That something good can be awfully simple. There have been times in my life where it was as simple as expecting an email from someone sweet, and there have been times when it was as extraordinary as expecting a new baby in the family. The important thing is the way it makes me feel.

I love the fluttery, butterfly feeling that life is warm and exciting.

Sometimes it is why I write. When I am working on a story that draws me back again and again with that feeling, I am pretty sure it is good. (For me for sure, if for no one else.)

So, find those things that warm you up and make you tingle and cherish them. They're really "flowers" from the universe saying, "Life is good and fun and you should enjoy it!"
