Happy Sunday! I hope you're keeping it a happy Sunday anyway, and if not, go do something that makes you happy and then come back. Otherwise, keep reading. Maybe reading makes you happy, maybe...okay, I'll stop rambling.
Anywho, it's been a happy day here. After church today, we met at our youth leaders pool for a day in the (cloudy) sun (with a slight chance of rain). Some people are coming over later tonight for a sleepover, and then tomorrow will start a brand new week.
But for now, I'm basking in the sun. Last night my friend and I watched a movie, that was fairly good by the way, that focused a lot on optimism and pessimism.
Optimism, no matter who's wearing it, looks pretty good. And a smile can add a lot , too. Because, when you're optimistic, you start to MAKE things look up. Nothing is ever going to go perfect, and the only thing that is certain about the future is that nothing is certain. So you have to take life as it comes, and, here's the ticket:
Make the best out of it.
I know. Cliché. But it's so true, and you have the power to decide how you face the world. You have the power to decide what attitude you approach with, and whether or not you are going to look and aim for the best.
When you are aiming for the best, it's not just for yourself...you are becoming a light for every person you touch in your life. Think about dark times and dark moments...what do you see first? What do you remember most? If you haven't guessed, it's the light.
Being a light is letting everyone else know it's okay, even when it doesn't always feel like it. Because hope can be the most inspiring thing in the world.
I hope your Sunday continues to be well, my flowered diving boards, and that your light is shining. I love you guys.
