Happy Scale 8/10
For the Happy Challenge
(this time, following Redbubble’s guidelines! Not like Shed The Shadows—when I didn’t!)
At eighteen, I felt free from any burden…
Now, again, I feel free from most burdens, bar the ones that we can’t shed of course, that we actually need to live! But these ‘things’ don’t have to be burdens, I can view them as ‘growth makers’ and my outlook can be, will be and is young and bright once again… I can’t look like I did when I was 18 but I can make a cartoon out of it! And the symbolism being generated here is that I am floating up around the clouds, like cloud eight. :))...
(maybe not all the time but hey, it’s a balance!!)

Great smile, Vicki! You do seem to be floating free and happy!
You’re so right about getting the right balance, learn from the burdens and grow – “growth makers” is a good description!
Vicki Ferrari replied
Thanks so much Kasia! :)
Karin Taylor
Cloud 8, hmm that would be just about right above Seventh Heaven, and just a bit before Cloud 9 perhaps?... i like how you’re travellin’ Vicki, for isn’t that what we all are about hey, travellers…. some of us on water, some on land, some through the air… all travellers have some common goals and needs, we are heading somewhere, we need encouragement and nourishment… we can do all we can for ourselves, to live right and healthy… and it’s really nice too when our fellow travellers can spot for us, while we take a break now and then or bend down to pick us up when we trip and fall. Life’s great some days, and not so on others, but all in all the bad passes and we grip onto what’s wonderful, and we continue smiling, loving, laughing and trying not to take it all too seriously….big hugs for a beautiful Vicki in the Sky on Cloud 8 xox
