JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 9 walk toward the rainbow – 13 days to go

18 Dec


{trust}  

There are 13 days left of The Promise 365!

Tonight, I enjoyed a wonderful dinner with a friend who I have not seen in too many years. It was a reunion of hearts, and memories and our younger selves. So much time has passed and so many life moments have happened, and so many roads have been traveled, but there we were, crossing paths again.

It reminds me that life is full of twists and turns, but if you continue to walk toward the rainbow the journey will be worth the adventure it holds in your heart.

In so many ways, that’ is what this blogging adventure has been about too. Walking toward the rainbow.

Trust me!
More tomorrow.Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 347 :: joy is a holiday party with friends

15 Dec


{adding joy}  

We just returned from a holiday party with friends and it has us filled with joy. Mostly because it’s been so long since we have seen our friends and also because it’s so wonderful to reconnect and remember.

So tonight, as we shared hugs and smiles and a Yankee Swap with old friends I could feel the joy bubbling up in me. It wasn’t in the gifts or the food or the ugly sweater contest. It was in the joy of connection to our past and our future. 


And that is what the holidays do best, connecting us to each other, as well as, to the past and future.

More tomorrow… 
Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 344 :: joy is dinner with family

12 Dec



{yum} 

Today my joy was dinner out with our cousin Adam.

I find it funny how many of my posts this year have to do with food or eating. The stomach seems to be a direct link to joy. The joy highway if you will. But to add friends and family to food, well, I think you’ve got a superhighway. 

Joy is dinner with family and a few laughs too. 

More tomorrow… 
Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 328 :: joy is seeing my girls

27 Nov

{virtual} 

Tonight my joy was seeing my girls – even though it was virtually it was worth it! There are so many miles between us but so many shared moments of love and laughter. Each time I see them it’s like no time has passed between the last visit, the last laugh, the last hugs. 
 

Joy is friendship and my friends are my joy. 

More tomorrow… 

Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 320 :: joy is friendsgiving

18 Nov


{grateful} 

Today was Friendsgiving and I am joyous that we have good friends in Boston to share a feast with in honor of Friendsgiving.  And what a feast it was, a thanksgiving ritual but this time renewed with a few good friends. 

I am thankful for the friends in my life, coast to coast, east to west, north to south. Family may be blood, in it for the thick and thin, but friends are the icing on the cake of life. They give without obligation. What a gift. 
 

 Cheers to friends, food and giving. 

More tomorrow… 

Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 252 :: joy is drinking wine with friends

15 Sep
{girls weekend}

Tonight, I am with “my girls.” We all flew to Denver to meet up in our annual gathering. It’s a touchstone in so many ways, there are so many years, tears, experiences, jobs, adventures and dreams we have seen each other through. So nothing brings me more joy than sitting on a porch drinking wine overlooking the Colorado night sky with my girls.  

Sometimes all you need is friends and wine all mixed together.
More tomorrow…

Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 89 :: long lost friends

2 Apr
{flowers}

I’ve been thinking a lot about my friends lately — and how lucky I am to be connected to so many amazing people in this world. What a true gift, in so many ways that words cannot describe. Joy is one word, that can only sum it up.

I’ve also been thinking about the times that I have felt so very far away from my “people” — and in those times when I cannot reach a friend, it’s always been the flowers that give me support.

The flowers pop up, bloom, and remind me that there is still beauty in this world.  Sometimes I think the flowers are long lost friends because of the joy they bring to me.

And, those flowers have taught me so many valuable lessons.

  • To bloom no matter who is watching.
  • To remember there will always be another spring
  • To celebrate all the various colors and combinations this world has to offer
  • And to recognize beauty in every stage of life

Those flowers are just so full of wisdom, love, and joy, aren’t they?
Thank you, my friends.

More tomorrow…

Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 59 :: the gift of friends

1 Mar
{joy-filled}

Sometimes the best gifts in life are people. Especially the people who can see your life even better and more clear than you possibly ever could yourself. That’s what I call a true friend.

And I like to call my true friends too! Tonight I was on the phone with one for three hours — three hours! It’s a good thing that we never run out of anything to say to each other. It’s even better to be seen.

I think a true friend is one who can believe in the other person’s best life, beautiful gifts, and biggest goals. No matter what today looks like.


Joy is the gift of a friend. 

More tomorrow…

Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 8 – DAY 49 :: joy of friends

19 Feb
{inside}

I’ve been thinking a lot about friends these days. The people in my life, who have come in and out at just exactly the right times. 

There are few words to describe it, but there is so much joy.

It has me thinking about the joy of friends. The lifelong joy and this very moment joy, and all the tiny turns in between.

A good friend is a mirror, holding you up to your greatest potential. And catching so you don’t fall to your lowest point. They are givers of good in so many ways.

I feel blessed in the friendship department. The sisterhood of the traveling friends. You know who you are!

Here’s to all the friends. New. Old. Silver. Gold.
Thank you for the joy. 

More tomorrow…

Lovemore,
Jamie

JAMIE’S BLOG – YEAR 7 – KINDNESS  DAY 310 :: soul candy

6 Nov
{sweet}

I was thinking a lot about sweetness today. The sweetness I had this weekend with my girlfriends. The sweetness of friendships. The sadness that it is now over and we are all home.

And, then, it popped into my head:  Soul Candy.
Having these sweet, sweet weekends together is just like candy for the soul. It’s so sweet and so good, and then, before you know it, it’s gone!

How kind (and so very sweet).
We all need a little candy for the soul.

More tomorrow…

Lovemore,
Jamie
