~Nothing is Ever As It First Appears~
Veggiegiggles is about Noticing things. It was born when I cut open an orange and saw: An Alien!* It made me laugh. A crummy day suddenly felt a little better. Maybe it would cheer someone else up! Hmmmmm
Those small delights that sweeten the day are the heart of Veggiegiggles. They are spontaneous moments caught on an iPhone. I may later tweak the color for the web, add features or props, but there is no fancy editing.
My Friend, Alien Orange
During a very, very long time of great physical pain and deep sorrow, I learned that savoring these small moments of Delight, Wonder and Awe were the key to finding healing-- for heart, mind, body, relationships, whatever. It helps us connect to Mighty Fine Things, starting with Appreciation, then Thankfulness, and finally: Joy. Such Mindful Living is the duty and blessing and birthright of all of us who share the Privilege of Living in this Magnificent World.
Don’t forget to eat your Veggies.
*Alien Orange told me his story, which will be appearing in installments on veggiegiggles in the near future. Stay tuned!
