Life? Fun isnt it?

Seems like just when we think we have it all figured out, we get a whammy thrown at us. Its like someone is saying....Dont get too comfortable...Life can be warm and wonderful and good, or cold and sad and not so hot. It makes one wonder why? How come things can't just stay the same? When you think about it...that would get boring after awhile, and we would sleep through life. Things have to hit us in the face sometimes, so we stay awake in it....How we deal with the adversity is the key to happiness I think. If we can look at whatever has hit us and say, Okay now lets deal with this. It won't last forever and we will get back to good days...How many treasures are in my life? How much love is there everyday? If I compare the good things to the bad, will it make the bad seem less important? How lucky am I to be part of this universe and all its glory? Even with all the stuff that angers me or hurts me, I am still so fortunate to be alive today. Today I will appreciate the good in my life and tomorrow if bad comes.....I will deal with it! I will fight for my happiness and that of those I love so much...After all.....This is all I have to leave behind when my time here is up. Sometimes when the days are long and the pain is heavy, I force a smile to my face...Then a laugh, then a song....It all becomes contageous and makes me feel better....Im smiling right now.....I love you reader....
