Surviving the Human Condition

Life is a tragedy or a comedy.....or a mystery, horror film, romance....it depends on how you spin it.  You can keep a staggering tally of gripes and complaints.  You can ennumerate the wrongs and flaws.  You can live your entire life as a tribute to negativity.  We all get that way and our feelings are easily justifiable.  But right now, right here, I choose to celebrate the rights:

1.  God is here.  No matter what is going on right this second.  No matter   where we are.  He IS here.

2.  I love my husband.  He is my partner.  My stubborn, impossible, infuriating love.  He's mine forever, and I love him.

3.  My kids are perfect...ly mine.  Shut up, they are MY kids, so they will always be the best when it is MY story.

4.  I love my job, even when I am tired and burned out and counting the minutes until Friday.

We are each drafting our own epic drama, and mine is going to be a feel-good flick.  We can laugh, or we can cry.  We can wail, or we can sing.  I choose to live MY life always looking for the positive and enjoy the crazy drama and comedy that comes with it.  Hoping I can learn and share.

Surely, between the kids, the man, the farm, the hotrods, and the redneck shenanigans, I will have PLENTY of fodder for the plot line.  :D
