The Littlest Of Things…Make the Biggest Changes
I had no intention of writing a blog this morning. I woke up very early, after a very restless and short sleep last night. I logged on to read and comment on some blogs before, I start the soon-to-be, very hectic day, ahead of me.So, before I go on and on anymore about my day-to-come, I want to keep this positive, and tell you, why I feel this day is different from the many others I’ve had these past few months.
It was a dark and cold drive this morning. On the way home I was thinking about a dream I had, not only 20 minutes before. I had dreamt about my father two days in a row. It’s been a long time since I had a dream about either of my parents. Crazy how the mind works. Nonetheless, it was comforting and I don’t feel as alone as I did, just last week. I feel as though, I am being watched over, and have been worrying needlessly. I want to and need to make this day a new one, a new start, because I am counting on myself to handle all the changes to come.
When I came home, I logged on and received an e-mail, from a man I met in the park a few weeks ago. He was a photographer, that took some photos of my little girl, when we were out playing with her remote-controlled car. He gave me his e-mail address, but I had forgotten all about him over these past few weeks. But, yesterday I remembered, sent him a short note, and I received the beautiful pictures this morning. It reminded me of the fun and laughs my daughter and I had that day together. I am very grateful for his quick response, assuming he had probably forgotten about me by now…but he did not, and sent a very sweet note along with the pictures. Which I am sure was no small feat, as he did not speak much English. You never know who you will meet in this life, and how what they do effects you and vice-versa.
To top it off, when I logged on this site, I received a booster note, that truly made me smile. There it was, something I needed to hear, see, read…words that, because I haven’t heard in so long, or believed of myself, inside or out, that I now feel refreshed. I know that, yes, I have always tried to be good to others, strangers, whomever. That the wheel is truly round and good things do eventually come back around to you. Every so often it is proven to me again and again.
Now as I’m sitting here, it is a beautiful sunny, cool morning. My favorite time of year…I have many things to do, many goals to reach. At this very moment, I have no doubt that I will accomplish whatever it is I set out to do.
Hope you all are as lucky as I am. Have a great day!
P.S. Thank you Chrisie

so glad you are having a positive and happy day. Hope your week/month/year remains the same.
I am always truly amazed at how awesome people are. Very cool! Have a great one!
What a beautiful, serene blog…you made me feel so calm and rested with your words. Thank you. I don’t know what is going in your life these days, as I have been out of touch with the site for awhile. I came back, but my communication with my buddies is limited. I hope that will change in the future…for now, I want you to know that if you need a friend, a shoulder to lean on or an ear to listen, I AM HERE. Send me a message and I will respond. You are a beautiful person and one who brings much joy to others!! Hang in there!
This was a beautiful blog, and I am so glad to hear that you are doing well.
Glad to hear you are on the upswing! It seems like some days I am the dog, other days, I am the fire hydrant. Just don’t forget that most of the time, your day is what you make it. Sure stuff happens, but its how you react to it that makes it good or bad - hard to say that about a car wreck but its more aimed at lifes irritations.
You can do it.
