So my friend posted a challenge on her blog. Take some time, think, and figure out the good things in you life. The things you enjoy. I'm totally taking her up on it, what with my recent suicidal tendancies. I think it's a great idea. As you will notice I've posted a picture of Disney's Robin Hood. Why? Well it was my favorite movie as a kid, haha my little sister and I watched it so much I can still recite every single word from it, and you better beleive it still is a favorite :)Alright things that make me happy/greatful to have bothered sticking around :
1-Jordan....I mean I don't know if I'd still be here if it wasn't for him
2-Real friends and family - The people that are there no matter what, regardless of what's going on. That's how real friendship works you both give even if it's hard because that's what you do when you really care.
3- My cats aka the fur babies - In all my time alone in this shit hole of a city it has been my cat Minwu and now little Astaroth that come visit me on a daily basis. They listen to the secrets that I'm too scared to let anyone else hear. Because in the eyes of a pet, there is no judgement just love.
4- Art in it's many forms. Beauty(not just it's typical manifistations) is one of the few things that keeps me going
5- Video games. Hey it ain't deep, but hell we're all allowed to have some fun once in awhile.
6-Colouring. Again, it's simple. But sometimes the best things in life are
7-Traveling. It's been soo long since I've gone anywhere for a real mini vacation. And I miss random road trips with no destination...Jiles thanx for being a big part of that one. I mean if it wasn't for that the Recess Pieces game would have never been invented and we would have never found zombie ranch :D
8-The outdoors. I love nature and spending time in it...except those damned mosiquto's *wink*
9-Surprises. It doesn't have to be a big surprise. Hell it can be a kinder egg, I'm still super excited to get it! :D
10-My Shrink. He's the best, he's helped me in ways I never thought possible. I'll never be able to pay back karma wise the debt I think I owe him for all his kindness, compassion and understanding. He is one of the only people out there who really has an idea of what the landscape of my brain looks like and he doesn't re-coil in horror. Sure you may say it's his job and it is, but if you dealt with the man you'd understand how comforting it is to be treated like an intellegent capable human being. If I could nominate him for some sort of award, I would.
11-Shopping. What can I say? Retail therapy is the best therapy. Haha, and I'd know I've tried enough other forms of it:P
12-Mysteries and the unknown. I love the fact that the world is an endless place to learn.
13-Shoes. Shoes = Love
So I could keep going....which is a really good thing! :D But I'll stop for now. Thanx Ruby, today I woke up feeling horrible and now I think I can make it through today :) You rawk!
So my Gators, next time you feel low....do this. It helps. It's like that ever elusive bandaid for your brain that they don't sell at the drug store!
