TASTES OF PARADISE

We are blessed to have a home in Florida…not too far from the water… where we find it’s nice…when we take a walk together to think… this must be paradise. We are blessed to have a family cabin in the mountains of North Carolina… where we find it’s nice when we take a walk together to think… this must be paradise. Wherever we are for a holiday…at home, in a restaurant… we find it’s nice…with the family gathered together to think… this must be paradise. Sitting around a campfire, telling stories…singing songs… again we find it nice as we look at all the smiles around us to think… this must be paradise. We recently visited England and France…London and Paris to be precise… where seeing the sights with our family we thought… this must be paradise. Although my list goes on and on…I will do my best to be concise… you might be wondering how so many places can we consider paradise… Let me be more accurate…I think it would suffice to say what we experience so often…is a taste of paradise. I can’t speak for the creator…but I believe the way the world was designed is that paradise is not one particular place…but more a state of mind. So at certain times, certain moments, sharing with those we love feels so nice that we smile and give thanks for those little tastes of paradise. It doesn’t matter where we are or when or what or how…what matters most is who and as far as I’m concerned…these little tastes of paradise will do. It’s the reason why whether in a restaurant, around a campfire In the mountains or walking along the sea.. I’m always pleasantly surprised when the next taste of paradise finds it’s way to me.
