What a beautiful, beautiful day! The past two days have been stormy weather wise, but this morning I awoke to an absolutely beautiful day. Sun shining full force, and that wonderful chill in the air that just makes you feel so very blessed to be alive....as do all days in my little big world. I love the rain, the darkness, and that blinding light of a super sunny day....but enough about weather...
It's been a very interesting and wonderful journey....this wonderfully blessed life that I'm so lucky to call "mine"...though it's not really just mine...it's everyone's life, together. Separate and yet shared as one! We're all SO very blessed...good times, bad times, trying times, happy times....eventually I hope we can all learn to love and appreciate them all. I've had many, many moments of feeling sad and feeling as if I would never see another happy moment...more so FEEL a happy moment. But hindsight is a very wonderful thing. Guess what? I DID and I DO feel happy moments...over and over again, and even more so. I know we've all had a friend or heard of someone who had these moments of sadness and couldn't quite get through them for one reason or another and ended up taking their own life. It's with great sadness that this happens, but I believe that even in death we all have a far greater purpose than ourselves....we touch the lives of so many people that we fail to even realize how great our own significance really is. I have a very dear friend who took his own life and not a day goes by that I don't think about him and carry a part of him throughout my own life. I feel that in living my life, I'm also living for those who cannot....and in that I appreciate EVERY thing that life IS....ALL of it, especially those hard times....I make it through because I know that on the other side of the tears is a smile that will brighten everything....and that's ALWAYS held true, no matter how much time it took, EVERY pain and hurt has been overcome and I have that wonderful blessing of looking back and being very thankful. I know the internet is a vast oasis of SOOO much STUFF, but it also contains real people with real lives, and that is why I decided to blog. Somewhere, sometime, SOMEONE will read this and need to hear these words for one reason or another. I just want everyone to know they are very very important, and no matter what you do, who you are, where you came from...YOU are needed and important, and valued just as much as the next person. I know there are plenty of people out there who look down on others or people who look up to others, etc...but we really are all equal and need to value each other as just that.
Well, this is my very first blog...so here goes to keeping it up and maybe meeting friends not yet met. Be awesome and beautiful...be the best YOU that you can be....smile smile smile....it's part of why your mouth was designed that way you know! ;)
