Greg and me, around the time of our engagement.
Sometimes, we get so caught up in the seriousness of being adults that we forget to enjoy life and have fun.
Occasionally, it's good to reminisce about the happy days of our childhood. To help refresh our memories, it might be helpful to look through some old photos.
What was fun and enjoyable during those times? (Nobody's childhood was perfect, but we all have things that we used to love doing.) It's not that we want to be children again, it's just that if we could only recapture what gave us joy, maybe we could use some of that to enrich our present lives.
Did you really enjoy painting or drawing as a child, but that activity got pushed aside as you got older? Why not try your hand at it again? It could make a positive difference in your life.
It doesn't even have to be anything big. For instance, just recently, I rediscovered puzzles. Every day now, I look forward to doing a right-brained type of puzzle like what's-the-difference-between-these-two-pictures puzzles.
Greg and I recently enjoyed going to a county fair, something we both loved doing as children. (We were there as part of our 29th wedding anniversary celebration.)
More pix of the fair:

Thanks for visiting! Until next Sunday, Becky
