Today started as a good day. Only a couple of jerks on the roads. What can you do though? If they are in such a hurry then I will gladly get out of their way.
Waking up this morning I was met with love and kindness. Really a great way to start. The day at work thus far has been slow enough to write a quick posting on what is going on in this mind of mine. So, here goes.......
What a difference a year makes. Truly, I never really even thought about that but wow, it can change things quite quickly. Last year I was without my daughter for Christmas day. Now I have never been without her in the 15 years she has been in my world, but last year I was. Even though I surrounded by family, I felt the loss deeply. It was hard to be "merry and bright" when my little girl, and I use that term loosely, was not by my side to celebrate. I wonder how I will do when she is out of the house and on her own. Hmmm.... maybe I will lock her in her room. :-)
I am thankful for many things in this rocky world and economy. I am lucky to have a job, even though I don't know for how long. I am lucky to have my family and friends. I am lucky to have my best friend by my side daily.
I was thinking about this yesterday and realized that if I had been given an assignment to list 10 bad things and 10 good things going on right now, the bad would be filled up first. The realization saddened me a little so I have given myself a new assignment to concentrate on the good this season and let the rest fall to the wayside. We will see how that works.
To all....have a wonderful holiday season. I hope it is both merry and bright.
