I was thinking about that phrase, Joy in the Journey, and what it means. On our recent journey to Patagonia in Chile, there was continual joy and delight in the things that our eyes beheld.
I thought of a snow flake falling thousands of years ago upon an icy glacier, layer upon layer of snow settling on top of it with each successive winter storm...and then melting and tumbling down a turbulent stream until it finally rests in the ocean once again.
I thought about rough roads and old boats, and the journeys that others have taken on them and in them.
I thought about the birds that soar freely in the sky.
I thought about what a blessing it is to be alive and to be able to choose the path we take and the life we live.
May you find joy in your journeying, wherever it might take you.
Oh yes, and if you didn't know it, it's Alphabe-Thursday once again. Jumpin' junebugs...we're celebrating the letter J this week...which means the continuation of the random journey through Chilean Patagonia. Be sure to jet on over to Mrs. Jenny's (haha...we should probably be celebrating HER) and see what jingles and things the other Alphabetarians are jabbering about.
