Good Morning! The first official blog....kind of an exciting thing! I felt very good when I shut down caringbridge, as I felt like I was able to finally begin a new chapter in life. HOWEVER, one thing I did miss was all of the interaction with all of you, and the ability to write. So I was interested when some friends sent me some blog sites and suggested I jump in. Hopefully, as the title of my site says, we can share lifes JOYFUL moments. Really, you get them everyday, whether you realize it or not. The first joy you get is simply waking up. You GET to live another day. Isn't that awesome? From there...we have a roof over our head and food on our table. That is very joyful....and for me, the biggest joy of all...looking into the beautiful faces of my husband and children...their smiling faces bring me more joy than I can express.
Where is YOUR joy?
I hope you all jump on the "joyful" train with me and enjoy this blog. Should be a fun ride!
Glad to "be" with you all again!
Love,
Julie
About Me
- Julie
- A little about me...I came to writing this blog by request of friends that followed my site on Caringbridge. My journey with Cancer (Non Hodgkins Lymphoma) was a long and grueling battle. But for now, we are one goal up and on the winning team! Caring bridge was a very important part in winning the match. It gave me a focus and purpose when I felt very overwhelmed with the hand of cards that I was currently being dealt. Apparently I have a knack for writing, and a group of people who enjoyed it. I found it very theraputic actually. So, with some persistant friends, I am now taking to blogging, though it won't be daily I will try to update often. It will be more thoughts, feelings, advice and anything else that comes to mind. I don't pretend to know everything, in fact, in the vasness of the universe, I know very little. I will try to share the gifts God has allowed me to have with others and ask you all to do the same! I hope you enjoy coming with me on this journey of life, finding JOY in every day moments!
Hi Julie,
ReplyDeleteHow crazy is this:) I started July 1 a joyful journal in a paper journal. Then I see this and thought why not try it this way? So I copied you- http://jackiesjoyfulmoments.blogspot.com
I am so very happy that you are doing this - hopefully people can figure out how to get to it. I was also inspired by your journal! So I'll be anxiously awaiting your posts.
