It's like, beyond pertinent that I focus on the good stuff right now. For instance:
- the cold spring water I'm drinking right now with 2 slices of lemon
- the plush white Ralph Lauren robe I'm wearing
- gifted to me by my mother
- my mother's recent efforts to be more involved in my life
- my dog's coat at the length it is right now: not too short
- and not too long
- just furry enough
- the fact that I actually tried to make a salad today
- the fact that I ate most of it despite it being an epic FAIL
- due to the fact that I didn't dry the tuna out enough
- causing the entire thing to be a big, sloppy, wet mess
- side note: how gross is that description?
- the Amy's organic pizza currently cooking in the oven
- and the smell of it, duh
- the gerbera daisies sitting next to my desk
- on the windowsill
- given to me by my Whole Foods cashier today
- after I decided to enlighten her
- with the details of my current life situation
- her only response was,
- "shhh" as she placed a bouquet of yellow beauty
- in my shopping bag
- I mean, I did wonder for a second if she was hitting on me
- but then decided it didn't matter either way
- because there are nice people in the world
- sensitive people
- yes, I am grateful for sensitive people
- like my father today
- his call meant the world to me
- despite the fact that he had to rescue me
- from my self-imposed darkness
- like a ice-cream scooper to a gallon of Ben n' Jerry's
- Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice-cream
- I cannot wait until I can once again devour a pint of it
- only 30 some days to go
- I gave up chocolate for Lent
- and I love chocolate
- but kind of like, unhealthily love
- oops, no negativity in this post!
- my love for chocolate is fine and dandy
- yes, yes it is
- the fact that I'm learning to let myself be
- lately
- thanks to some wonderful help
- sometimes we need help in life
- and it's not a weakness
- it's a strength
- and some people that don't want to
- well...
- maybe they're weak?
- but maybe not
- i'm just not sure
- plus, this is not a post about that kind of stuff EITHER
- back to the lecture at hand
- I love spring weather
- and the fact that it was almost 70 degrees today
- and the fact that I am a fighter
- although today, well specifically tonight
- I feel blue
- until I take a sip of my ice cold spring water with lemon chunks
- and realize my pizza's ready
bullet-pointed post idea in stream of consciousness, fragmented style was kind of, just a little bit, maybe just inspired by the lil bee
This is so positive, love it! You start with the cold spring water + lemon and mention it in the end-in a way the whole thing comes full circle.
ReplyDeleteI agree, in life we need some help once in a while...I had to learn that it's not a sign of weakness. It is strenght!
PS: If you have time, I interviewd a wonderful up and coming designer on my blog. Would love for you to check her work out. :)
