Feeling Waves

sometimes, I feel waves...

I love waves... real ones that is... they are one of my most favorite things on the planet... to see, to watch, to listen to, to smell, to feel as they ebb and flow. They are ever changing yet also constant. They are sometimes small and ripply, with nary a foam, and they also can be huge, turbulent and crashing. These of course are the literal ones.

(I am so lucky to live so close to the ocean and so many incredible beaches!)

but the waves that I sometimes feel... are waves of emotion.... more specifically... waves of love.

Yes, I know how incredibly corny and sappy and drippy and sentimental etc. that sounds. I don't have them all the time, I have them rarely actually but when they come, they fill me with joy and appreciation.... so I thought I would share my moments of waves.

I love my family all the time, especially my husband and children, so that is not rare... it is constant and unconditional. The rare feeling of waves is when suddenly, you feel almost overwhelmed by love for someone... you might be staring at them in just a regular moment... or they just did something sweet or funny or caring... or they just look at you a certain way... or perhaps they are not even looking your way but whatever they are doing spurs your love in some way.... are they intent upon their task... or on the phone... perhaps they are not even there with you... they just somehow enter your soul for a moment and out of the blue.... if you give it a moment as the feelings engulf you.... and you let it flow over and back... you will see what I mean... waves!

(don't expect frequent posts eh? as I mentioned they are rare)

And I thought I would wish you all your very own waves.
