Bubbles.

I love bubbles. Admit it, you love bubbles too. I love bubble baths, bubble gum, soap bubbles floating across the sky, tiny bubbles in champagne, the bubbles that cause milk to froth for a latte or a meringue, the bubbles that form on a baby's lips when they discover the tricks they can do with their own spit. Bubbles are kind of awesome.

One of the best bubbles is the bubble of excitement that forms in your chest when you know you're onto something fantastic in your life. The kind of bubble that makes you feel like your heart is jiggling like jello on a spoon held by a giggling child. Like when Indiana Jones realized that his nemesis was digging for the ark of the covenant in the wrong place because his staff was too long.

The most amazing thing about an excitement bubble is the ability to spread the excitement around.

I have that bubble now. And I can't wait to share it with everyone. But good things come to those who wait. So in about a month I'll be able to talk about it. Until then, enjoy the bubbles you have in your life and if you're lucky enough to have a bubble in your chest that jiggles when you laugh, you are truly blessed.
