Quilt Square Twelve: Creating Joy

as a young child, the adults in my life would always say, "you always have to be the center of attention." in my soul, i'd be screaming, "yes! yes, i do!" it didn't matter what family i was staying with, the parentals & teachers all sang the same tune. i've always wanted to perform:  on stage, television, the big screen, a cruise ship. . . it didn't matter. i wanted people to see me & adore me. i am definitely a leo (even if they got it wrong for 500 yrs).

i had a repeat of an ongoing epiphany as i sat down to write this morning. I AM ALWAYS WITH AN AUDIENCE:  no matter where i go or with whom i'm interacting, my god is my cheerleader, my grandchildren are my conscience, jesus is my best example, & my soul keeps me from killing everyone.

so, if you see me dancing while i'm walking somewhere or chatting to no one, just giggle to yourself or laugh & point. either way, i win. if i can make anyone's mouth curl up in the corners &/or make the sparkle light up their eyes then i can walk away knowing that that one person was my best audience.
