-One day I decided that I wanted to help some legislation pass that I felt was important. I wanted to do this sometime in my lifetime. I told somebody this goal and they responded by telling me that I already help in getting legislation passed, every time I vote! What a nice thought they had! Very optimistic and positive, huh? I like that!
-It's exactly 1 week to my Birthday! I love Birthdays! They're so much fun. It's your special day. Your very own, personal special day.
- Celebrate does not mean food! Celebrate does not mean eat! Why can't I disassociate those two from each other?!?!
- Now that Dave has found my knitting needles (they got buried in the move, the move that happened 5 months ago, yea, so what?!?!) I can start knitting again! Knitting brings me a feeling of accomplishment. AND, the first project that I am going to complete is Michelle's scarf! I promise, Michelle! You'll at least have it for next winter! :)
-Everyday is a challenge and you can choose to keep your chin up and keep plugging along or you can choose to feel sorry for yourself because of your struggles, thus creating bitterness, I think. And bitterness, folks, is ugly! It grows and grows and grows, turning those who fester in it ugly. By making the choice to keep your chin up and keep plugging along, I think you're able to find and see the happy moments that are in each day. Keeping your chin up and plugging along is not the easiest thing to do, though. It is a struggle in itself. Some moments are a lot easier than others. No body ever said this was gonna be easy! Those who keep their chin up and keep plugging along are better off for it, though.
Such words of wisdom from a twenty-eight (almost twenty-nine years!) young woman. With this type of philosophy, nothing will ever keep YOU down for long!!!
ReplyDeletelets see... Missy Votes, Missy is getting old, Missy likes to celebrate with yummy stuff (you forgot the drinks), Missy's friend is COLD, My chin is up but it is cold. I agree with you on the chin up thing although sometimes it is nice to sit and cry about how somethings suck, then wipe your tears, stick that chin up, grab the girls and have a drink, call it a day and go to bed with the one you love and a smile!
