Now, I don't want to leave the impression that I'm normally an unhappy person. That isn't the case. But, I do struggle...frequently...to remember that I have a lot of reasons to be happy. You know, life can sometimes sap all your ability to see the good things...like your house, your family, your car, your (or your husband's) job, your friends, etc.
I realized this afternoon that I am happy. Really happy. Things are good. They are not perfect, but they're good. I feel capable. I can see good things ahead. What a blessing, huh? I just had to share this realization. I'm praying that I'm able to maintain this satisfaction, this contentment, this gratitude through any upcoming trials or downturns. I pray that all of you are happy, too. It's a really good place to be :o).

Sometimes I do the same exact thing. I tend to think of things that aren't going my way. But if I stop to thing - really think - about things I realize that I have a pretty darned good life. Thanks for making me take another look at things today.
SO glad to hear you're feeling so good.... now send some of that happiness my way will you?? ;)
Not to worry... I'm working on it.. really working on it. Things have to get better some time right?
Wow, you've given me reason not to like you... thanks a lot.
