Just Stay Positive

It's a lot easier said then done. Just be positive. Doesn't sound like a very hard task. Ha, it's probably the hardest thing for me to do. And that's a deceptive statement because it isn't always that hard. Some days it's really easy to stay positive. There are days when I get off work early, don't work at all, dinner is exactly what I wanted and I didn't ask for it, my girlfriend wants to buy a rifle and get into hunting, my dog hasn't gotten in the trash, I don't have any bills due that day, it isn't raining (which it is right now), NatGeo has a special on Killer Whales attacking Great White sharks (which they do right now), or sometimes I'm just in a good mood. But there are days when it's raining, or my money seams to be streaming from my bank account, or things just seem to be conspiring against me. Those are the days when it's hard to be positive. Some days I do good. I'm bright eyed and bushy tailed from the moment my feet hit the floor and then it happens, it all goes bad. It doesn't take much, it clouds up, or someone just makes the wrong comment. And I ask myself, later in the day, why I can't just let that roll off my back. As I get older I get better at letting things slide, but it's still a learning process. When I step back and think about everything positive in my life it definitely adds up. Like right now, for instance, my dog is on the other end of the couch snoring and I can't help but smile. I know that in a little while my Kim is going to walk through the door and back home to me and I can't help but smile. I know that my mom loves me and I can't help but smile. I have a Diesel and I can't help but smile. God woke me up this morning and I can't help but smile. There's a roof over my head and food in my belly and I can't help but smile. I've got a job that I don't hate and I can't help but smile. I have two days off to spend with my Kim and I can't help but smile. The list could go on and on, and if I knew what was good for me I'd probably keep going. But I want this blog to be, at the very least, semi-interesting for other readers. So with so much of today's news and everything else caught up in negativity try and stay positive. Be warned though people will look at you like you're weird, like you're not normal. They'll look at you like you're something that wandered in from the wild, but hey isn't that the point. Refuse normalcy, be wild. That's how we were meant to be, POSITIVELY WILD.
