i came to that point in life where,
i woke up and had a hearty breakfast of bad news,
sad realizations
and unexpected disappointments.
add to that, a big platter of difficult people
i have to deal with everyday.
so i smiled. that trusting smile.
i dont own all the problems in the world.
its hard but i make it a habit
to still try to see the good things
behind the bad,
to think positively and brighten up my perspective.
and when life knocks me down,
i get up, grab a friend, talk and have coffee.
i choose ice blended to cool my head.
im going to make it a happy summer day.
then, i will keep moving.
