PLB Editorial- A Great 'Normal' Day πŸ“…

Whenever you read this there's no reason to consider today another normal, unadventurous and unexciting day. Now, it’s about context, some people need that 'normal' day, some people have had so many terrible and toxic days that they simply want that 'normal' day back. No drama, or supernatural event, just the shining sun 🌞, the trees and the shade they give, the blowing leaves, the wind, a lake, river or the ocean in sight and a bottle of water or cup of coffee in hand. For some people, that used to be normal until something happened and disrupted their entire reality. Interestingly, they only realised how wonderful their days were when it was long gone... we can do better to appreciate each day.

The day doesn’t have to be dramatic or “supernatural” to be wonderful- love, tranquil and watching normal people just living on the good side of the human experience can be a beautiful experience. Like staying put atop a tall building or walking the beach side, even easier, just sitting outside the house and observing people and nature.

The whole point is, 'normal' can be a blessing. In my books, the scenario relayed above makes for an absolutely beautiful day. Tranquility is a beautiful place to be, unclogged thoughts and clear-cut imagination, staying on a thought and seeing it through to action points; writing a new page for my novel, seeing new perspectives on subject matters, listening to genuine stories and accounts, having open-minded discussions, seeing a dream unfold, gently unwrapping a gift, being kind (and sometimes receiving appreciation for it), practising love to all and allowing my smiles linger a little longer, ignoring distractions, receiving and giving good news, helping a stranger, helping a friend, an undisturbed deep sleep, getting once-for-all-time grade answers to lingered questions πŸ’‘, having enlightening and practical conversations (Ooooh this one!) enjoying people.

A great day is in your hands, even if it seems simply 'normal'.

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that wayπŸ˜ΆπŸ˜‡. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa...
