Dave’s Musings: Frolick!

Maybe you put everything down, went outside and took a walk. Oh, yes, there’s housework to be done and clothes to be folded but you just could — so you went out and enjoyed the sun on your face, the wind though you hair and the song of the robin in your ear.

A popular saying asks, “Are we having fun yet?”

This is a question we need to ask ourselves repeatedly in order to reset our inner compass. Too often we get too involved with life and forget that we need to live.

Take a few minutes to enjoy the good in this moment. It’s not the money you are making or the tasks you are rushing to complete that are important — it’s the joy of being alive and able to frolick with life.

Remember you need to have some fun, to smile, to laugh in order to live fully. So take time to:

• Read a silly book
• Watch a funny movie
• Take a walk in nature
• Go skipping
• Enjoy your children

Frolick and let yourself live!
