You’re Right

You know I like to keep it positive around here, right ?
It’s true.
I do
& you also know what happens when I start thinking a smidge too much

hmmmm

but, I’ve been pondering things
& what I ponder, I write.
So.
Here goes.

I sometimes think, that you sometimes think, that things cannot possibly be as chipper as the message I so often deliver
&
You are absolutely right.
They’re not.

Stuff happens.
It’s happened many times, actually.
But hey, it’s Life
& life offers a cornucopia of good and bad
& like a turn on a roller coaster, it can switch moods in a matter of seconds.
It’s rather intimidating
& downright overwhelming if one sits down to think about it

& I suppose I could offer up an occasional rundown of the not so swell things that have popped up on my life’s journey, along with a box of boo-hoos
I could
but, I wouldn’t
and I won’t
& here’s why.

Quite a few dozen years ago, I was caught in that negative spin
& what I sought, I found.
Looking back now, it seems I preferred a no can do over doable in every situation I encountered, topped off with a NOT AGAIN, Why Meeeeeee ?!!? attitude.

ugh

I always tipped no before yes
& I was forever caught in between yay or blahhhh, join the parade or hide under a cover.
Positive side versus Negative side
& it was nothing outright obvious ’cause that’s how I do, but believe me, it lived and it festered
& that doggone pessimist often ruled.

Until the day I hit my rock bottom.
The day my mama died became my turning point moment.
I survived THE most awfullest spot ever and my life s l o w l y, surely blossomed into wonderful.
It took Mom leaving hers to open up these eyeballs to mine.

wow

& now ?
ohhhhh now.

The light is absolutely everywhere
& I do mean everywhere.
It jumps out,
it yearns to be seen and treasured
& today and every day beyond I promise you and I promise me I will ALWAYS choose positive.

Yep, Life
There will be high points and lows.
Nothing and everything.
Fears, flaws, dancing, crying.
Too much this and not enough that
& a mountain of lovelies in between.

So if you’re thinking that things can’t possibly be as chipper as the message I so often deliver,
you are absolutely right.
They’re not.

But, I’m here and you’re here and yay

! YaY !

Happy Today.
