Service ~ 'It's a Pleasure'

'Joy'

What brings me joy this Thursday, 29 December 2011?

Honestly?

Something really simple.

Yet profound on the subject of service ~

"Service makes you tingle with aliveness.... is deeply creative, generative, and yes risky, because it means you share your heart." Jennifer Louden

This subject is one of several brilliantly written articles currently to be found over at Susan Piver made me 'tingle' with Joy when I read it!

Oh yes, the other great Joy today as you will have noticed ~ playing with my blog ~ all new for a while ;~)

New year's intention ~

Winged things on my mind
bringing messages of peace

Norwegian Dreamscape Expanded

Meditation Morn
My Dreamscape Meanderings
Heavenly pass~time
