I still am changing

So after indulging myself in my latest addiction, A Day in a Dog's Life, I started really thinking about life. Michael's post, "How to Pray for Dummies" got me contemplating about life, love, God and everything else in between.
Someone significant to me got me thinking about where I am today in every aspect. A lot has changed in my life. Change - I now look at it as a building block as opposed to positive or negative. For once, change to me is just that - change. I has affected profoundly who I am and what I am becoming, but I no longer beat myself up and try to measure myself against the impossible standards that exist in my mind.
I am still changing. I am still growing. I try to understand more. I try to feel more. And everyday is a gift that I appreciate. Living for the moment allows me to savor and taste every morsel of pleasure life has to offer. Enjoy every moment of bliss without regret. It was once said, never regret that which makes you smile. Wise words to live by.
And before I go to bed I ask myself, "What made you smile today? What made you laugh out loud, genuine delight shining on your face?" And I scribble something in my diary for me to later reminisce upon.
Like this little delight here.
