I have been doing really well with my mission to stay positive lately. I've been keeping a smile on my face and not sweating the small stuff. I have been letting the people around me know how I feel about them, and i have been practicing gratitude. Then I got the mail...it's funny how just one small thing can turn your world upside down in an instant. I'm not going to go into what was in my mailbox, but I will say that it felt devastating. I looked at it and instant tears surfaced. I then called my best friend. 5 minutes later all was well. I could have let this take me down a sad road today. I was at the bookstore looking for a book...and I kept gravitating toward sad books...like I was looking to wallow in my misery. I noticed what I was doing and instantly put a stop to it. I choose to feel how I feel. Yes I got caught off guard, but what I do with that...is what defines me. I'm proud of myself today for sucking it up and moving on with my day. Not letting anything get in my way.
So, I chose.....The Book of Awesome instead of some sad sappy book, and it has turned out to be a great decision. I suggest you get a copy yourself...it will definitely be a go to, on days like today, for me.
