Hello my bloggers. I do apologize for the late posting, if anyone's reading. I mean, I know this isn't like a major click-point for the day or anything of that nature, but it is a goal that I set for myself and I am steadily reaching it, day by day, one post at a time.
Today consisted of hanging out with best friends, meeting up with missed friends, and hitting up the job schedule. Work was...not relaxing...but very routine, which is nice. And it was pretty busy, which is always good!
I want to talk about keeping my head up today, and keeping my eyes away from the shadows that so eloquently cajole me into drifting towards them. Because, especially in a routine situation, it's easy to look at the monotony, the slow-going, sometimes speedy, repetitive schedule, motions, patterns, habits, thoughts...and the whirlwind is always devastating...
Unless you can focus upwards.
Unless you can remind yourself of the good.
What's the good in my life? I have a really good family...a really great family-no...a fantastic family. A family that backs me up when they see the worst of me, when I get the most angry, the most jealous, the most hurt, the most obnoxious. And they keep coming back for more of me, even when I'm no fun to be around. And when I am happy, they are happy with me. And I love them, through thick and thin.
What else is good...well, I have some pretty Grade A friends. I don't mean your average A minus friends, or maybe even A friends, but I have A+++ friends with like twenty two bonus points added. Like, topping the charts friends. Mainly because they put up with both sides of me...the light and dark let's say. And frankly, the dark shows its face a lot more than I would want it to. But they are always there.
I have a good God. Which is pretty self-explanatory, but you know what? There's not enough praise that can be said about His Goodness. Because He is almighty in power, overflowing in mercy, and completely and utterly amazing in everything He has done. My Savior is one of Grace, and that is so, SO good, you guys.
I guess that covers the basics. The good basics. The good in my life that is always worth mentioning and focusing on.
I especially love you, my bloggers, if anyone is reading. Because the fact that you are here, whether daily, or a couple times a month, makes me smile just a little bit more. And trust me, I'm smiling. Stay cool, you leafy tabletops.
