I Just Love That

There is nothing more peaceful than an early morning grocery store run.  It's quiet, the store is pretty empty, perhaps a little too empty but that's my mind working overtime and thinking about this horror movie I saw once.  Y'all know I digress...

Needed a few essentials before my work day started so I got up early, which is part of my daily routine and headed off to the store.  

The fresh flowers are all too beautiful giving me a glimpse of what is to come for Spring.  My favorite season by the way.  Colors so bright you would swear they are fake, but they are all part of God's beautiful gifts.

Quiet moments like this allow much needed time to clear my mind before the madness of the day starts.  I saw a familiar face, a lady who works at the store who is always so friendly, we chatted for a few minutes about perfume, which I can talk about all day.  This brief, yet meaningful conversation added to my very pleasant shopping experience and I just love that.

I went back and forth in my mind for approximately 23 seconds trying to justify the donut that was staring me in the face as I slowly walked past the bakery.  I knew the immediate and gratifying need for the sugar rush I was going to indulge in would be well worth the glycemic increase.  To buy the donut or to not buy the donut, how do I justify thee.

​Then I remembered what someone said recently, you have to live, now!  And so it is...
