Decadent white chocolate dessert with lime and a worrisome heart.

 This decadent white chocolate dessert have been on my mind for a while.

So after some wonderfully hectic days, filled with great news, I just went for it.

No special occasion other than celebrating life a bit, on a mere Friday:)

 My beloved mother taught me to celebrate on random occasion. To have a little feast on mere Wednesdays for no reason at all than to spice the everyday up.

I love that thought and I love how she will take random moments to sit alone in the sun and enjoy a decadent chocolate dessert all by herself, or pull over the car on mere Mondays when she’d pick me up at school to have a bite of confetti chocolate she kept in her bag.

But lately I’ve had a somewhat of a worrisome heart.

Oh, the heart, the worrisome heart that oftentimes leap into tomorrow to gather up all it can be worried about and cloud my present.

It’s quite silly really to chose to be worried about things that are just as unlikely to happen as they are likely.

Yet sometimes I do and listen to this talented woman and marinate a little in her melancholy.

So as the snow peacefully fell outside my window, I tossed worries out the window and gave into the delightful taste of sweet chocolate with a drizzle of lime.

In it’s decadent embrace worries were kept on hold for a while and I allowed myself to be happy for all the wonderful things that fill the now.

And as I sat there bathing in the soft light through my kitchen window, I bore my soul and emptied my bag a bit.

Since worrying is based on fear of the unknown, wanting to be buckled up when a storm takes you by surprise, and hoping desperately to be able to build up a big enough wall of steel so that no hurt or disappointment can penetrate.

I let the sweet delicate white chocolate melt ever so slightly on the spoon  and gave in.

I gave in to the moment and gave in to the unknown, even if just for now;)

I came to realize that I love the four seasons, and that I in no way want to avoid having a good storm sweep though my life every now and then, as it makes my life so much more meaningful to be able to experience diversity.

I guess it’s just all a matter of clothing really.

I’ll just learn to dress my heart and mind in the appropriate clothing so I can be amidst a storm, and even if the cold wind stings on my face, my heart is nestled and warm inside, because I know I can do this.

In the end it’s not about others, what may or may not happen, it’s up to me to learn to thrive no matter the weather;)

With a dash of indulgence and a feast on mere Fridays, I think I can do it, one step at the time.

And if my worrisome heart should emerge again and make me weak in the knees with a bit of fear I’ll just let it.

So what!

I’ll take a moment to listen, then move on as I know we all have it in us to rise above, try again and get it right…next time;)

And people say chocolate can’t solve your problems… huh!

Have a lovely worry-less weekend:)
