Jubilation!

JUBILATION: I love that word and it sounds just like it's meaning:
uninhibited rejoicing in the celebration of a victory or success

I am feeling jubilant right now, in this moment. Call it unreasonable jubilation. But really, it's never for no reason. I am jubilant today because I am alive; my body can still dance, my mind can still dream and I am still moved to tears by watching an inspirational movie or becoming one with an amazing sunset. I am alive!

Yes, I have money challenges, yes I want things I don't have and yes I wish my body was younger again, but I am alive. I can feel love when I see my granddaughter take her first steps, I can know peace when I look up at the night sky and and experience infinity and I can explode with compassion when I see the faces of the people and children in earthquake stricken Haiti.

I can still
feel passion when I hear beautiful music and surrender to the pleasure of the pallet when tasting something delicious. I feel that Divine connection when I hold a friend who needs a shoulder or when a friend holds me when I need a shoulder. I am alive when I gaze into the eyes of another and see Us, the synergistic creation revealing Spirit, emerging only from this special connection and realization of Self. Namaste'.

  1. Jubilation is so akin to 'gratitude' Kay, and every time I find myself feeling less than grateful for my 'lot', all I have to do is open my Gratitude Journal, write down what I'm grateful for at the moment and a lot of jubilations suddenly appear on my page. Thanks for this great post.
