ALL of these apply to me of late.....#1, reminds me to "let it begin with me" and I can only change me....#2, I've had sooo much pain, so when the good comes, I may be a bit more gr8ful then some because of my terrible past.....#3, yea, I can start my day ugly or just , if things are going wrong, re-boot and do it as much as I need to...I say how my day is going to go....#4, reminds me that ODAT is the only reality I have and if I put GOOD energy into my "today bank" and I'm still here tomorrow, that good energy will come back to me.......and #5, tells me that a stack of little things is just as good as one great big one....there is so much beauty I noticed today.....it was sunny....I had my Halloween shirt on with the spiders and bats on it and got lots of laughs..went to work and boss and I examined the books, had a great chat and by golly, we just MAY be able to keep this company going if we follow our budget plans.....
boss's wife stuffed my "goodie basket" with my favorite treat: Reeses butter cup candies....I ate the whole damned bunch of them......played ball with my younger dog and just marveled at her athleticism.....the beauty of nature and animals......yea, today was pretty cool as i sit here still coming down from my major sugar high....
