Another day or two and it will be done.
I haven't made many posts the last while with chat. I haven't been feeling too chatty I suppose. I waffle between contentment and curmudgeonly ness. Joy is easy to chat about. Curmedgeonlyness? I'm not sure that anybody needs more misery in the world right now. I have no patience for the stupid thing people do and I am pretty sure my anger isn't going to improve things.
The other part is that though I feel grumpy as often as most people, it's easier now that I am older to just dump those feelings. I just decide not to carry the misery. I still care deeply about things and still feel the same sorrow and anger but I can put it down and put it away. I choose to look for the good in the world. I look at snowflakes and water drops and I contemplate their shape and size. I play with bubbles in my bath. I breath deep the smell of my coffee. I watch the sun rise up and the world awaken every day. It makes my life better.
I have the power to pick what I will be in the world and today I will be a person with a nice cup of coffee and a sleeve on a pretty blue sweater.
