Learning to roll with the punches is not always easy, but I take comfort in the fact that looking at pictures of good times and enjoying/acknowledging the things in my life that are good, helps me along the way. Today was quite interesting as I came to a panicked state at the fact that I may have to once again change careers...not a fun task. This realization was followed by my observing a beetle trek across someone's salad while at lunch at one of my favorite restaurants (that I will not name as I love that place and can not ruin it for the rest of you). Need I mention that my appetite from the two combined happenings was pretty much non-existent afterwards.
Seeing that my harried state was not boding well for sales I returned home feeling very downtrodden and in need of yet another vacation from reality. Good thing "Property Virgins" was on, nothing like a good home-buying show to distract me. Feeling lethargic I roused myself for a good ole run at the gym and after returning home yet again began to think on my predicament. So I then did what I do best...shop. Luckily this shopping was on a very small scale and involved me ordering some new prints for my frames - I do try to change them out once a year to get fresh scenery for the house. Looking at all these happy moments that I had captured helped to make me grateful for what I have and realize that I have been through a lot already in my life and I have made it this far. I knew that I could persevere through this surprisingly bumpy time in my life (and now slightly less bumpy as they have finished the repaving of the street which was in dire need).
I am grateful for the wonderful people in my life who have stood by me and taught me many things along the way. I am trying to keep in mind that things that happen each day need to be taken in perspective, after all everything is relative.
