Daily Inspiration - Play

Play. 

 

The older you get, the more important it is for you to not act your age. As you melt, you feel lighter than you have in years. Your body moves easily and you may realize you have the urge to play, to frolic. Give in. When your children beg you to come outside and play with them--do it. You can joyously jump into the pile of leaves you've raked. You can unashamedly make a snow angel and get up without help.  

Rejoicing in your newfound youth, you reawaken your inner child. This awakening releases your soul and lets it soar. You are limited only by yourself and your inhibitions. Now is your time to play like you haven't in a long, long time. 

Action for the day: You guessed it. Play.

It is amazing how refreshing & satisfying a little bit of play can be.  My oldest & I ran out into a storm a couple of weeks ago & danced, chased each other, puddle jumped and such.  It was so uplifting & fun.  Another night I was out running across the yard chasing lightning bugs with my nephews.  Such an amazing & fun feeling.
