About loveandjoy
Hi:)
My friends call me LJ (Short for Love and Joy, )and my family and Love calls
me Jennifer. My days are filled with laughter, music, dance, meditation, people, conversation,
children, walking, health, healing, spirit, sunshine, good food, and respect
for the great mysteries of life.
I decided to take this trip after I was coming to the end of a few big
"milestones": Earning my Master's Degree and passing on the Nonprofit
Community Preschool I founded 5 years ago.
While enjoying this wild ride I call my life I have been blessed to be
surrounded by many teachers, healers and loving people. I live in a beautiful
place that provides space for me to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually.
I have come to believe that everybody has a light of love in them, that the
universe will take care of me, that I attract what is inside of me, we are all
connected, I create my world and the importance to surrender to the unknown. I truly
love experiencing the magic of the world we live in and I am endlessly grateful
for all those who are in my cosmic community!
Many people ask me what I hope to gain from this trip or why I am doing it.
It is hard for me to put intuitions and unknowns into words. And it would be
difficult to map out all the serendipitous events and signs that the universe provided
to point me in this direction. I am grateful for my awareness and willingness
to proceed on the path laid out for me. In short..... I listened to my heart!
I do know though that I grow the most when my world is shaken up, when I sit in raw emotion, when I
leap into the unknown, when I go towards my fears, when I hurt, when I love and when I am open and
willing to receive from others. So with that in mind I can only hope to
grow my spirit which will in turn guide me to be a better friend, provider,
lover, server, mother and human.
I ask that my friends and family send out positive thoughts, prayers, and
support for my journey. Know that my wisdom, intuition, kindness and awareness will keep me safe. Please embrace the feeling of excitment for my adventure and the
inspiring events that are to come. I will try my best to keep you posted on my journey through this travel blog.
