Wicked

Today my friend, Carisa, and I went to the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center and saw Wicked, The Untold Story of the Witches of Oz! We sat in row F, which we figured would be 6th row, but we think it was more like 9 or 10, but who cares? We were close enough to see expresions on the actors faces and details on the costumes!! IT WAS AWESOME!!!

I have never been to a Broadway musical or any kind of musical and I was amazed. I was amazed by the actors, the music, the singing, the set and the overall expericence of it!!! I thanked Carisa for bringing such an experience into my life, it is a memory that I will always love to recall!!

Here is the link to the offical website, if you care to peruse... http://www.wickedthemusical.com/ and there are a few pics below that I took w/my camera phone ...

JOY

JOY, Noun
1. Intense and especially ecstatic or exultant happiness.
2. The expression or manifestation of such feeling

I have figured it out!!!!! I am missing this JOY in my life.

Now, hold your horses... don't get me wrong, My two men are a Joy, my family is a Joy, my friends are a Joy, being a Christian is a Joy..... but I believe I need MORE JOY each and everyday! It doesn't have to be a knock me in the head until I see stars kinda joy but maybe just simple joy will do.

I don't think any of us nowadays have enough joy in our everyday lives!!

Hmmm, this is something to ponder, (how to get JOY in our everyday lives) and as soon as I figure it out, you'll be the first to know ;-)
