Little Bit of Light

Imagine…you are having the best dream.  It’s fun, exciting, romantic, adventurous, (insert your own adjective here)!  You’re getting to the best part where all that fun, exciting romantic adventure is coming to a climax and….the alarm goes off, catapulting you back into the reality of dark, cold, and tired.  You look over at your alarm with your blurry eyes and let out a moan because it can’t be 6:00 already!!  Five more minutes, Mom!  You drag yourself out of bed and make your way to the kitchen where your coffee maker is already hard at work (thank goodness for timers on small appliances).  Now, you feed the dog, let him out, let him in, check on the cat, make your lunch for that day, fix some breakfast, check your email, check social media to see if anything worthwhile happened while you were asleep, maybe get to that daily devotion, take a shower, try and make yourself look presentable for the day, say goodbye to your hubs, and begin the commute to work...

  Hello, and welcome to “Little Bit of Light!!”  I’m so glad you decided to check this blog out!  Here, I hope that you will find a little nugget of something that will make you laugh, inspire you, or just leave you feeling a little happier.   Let’s face it, the last few years have been the pits.  Maybe, it hasn’t been all bad, but the internet is definitely a breeding ground for negativity and evil.  My intent is to spread a little love and plant a seed of good in you that may flourish.  Sometimes, that seed sprouting is instant and sometimes it takes its sweet time…and that’s ok.  It’s ok to wait!  (And, that’s coming from a person who does NOT wait well.) So, please stick around and look around a bit.  If you discover something that has done even the smallest ounce of good for you, please pass it along to someone else! It’s going to be a great day!
