It's only as bad as you want it to be

I am a big believer in the power of positive thinking. List five things that are great about your day.

My list:

1. Traffic was a breeze this morning.

2. The kids were up early - and cheerful about it!

3. I get free windshield wiper fluid refills anytime I need them from the place that changes my oil. Guess who is happy as can be that she doesn't have to figure out how to lift the hood on The Notrious SUV this afternoon!?!?!

4. The temperature is above freezing. CAR WASH!!!!!!!!!

5. Blueberry bread for breakfast.

We should all strive for this

  Do not ask your children to strive for extraordinary lives. Such striving may seem admirable, but it is the way of foolishness. Help them instead to find the wonder and the marvel of an ordinary life. Show them the joy of tasting tomatoes, apples and pears. Show them how to cry when pets and people die. Show them the infinite pleasure in the touch of a hand. And make the ordinary come alive for them. The extraordinary will take care of itself. Source:  The Parent's Tao Te Ching

It's so hard to leave....until you leave.

“And as paralyzing and upsetting as all the never agains were, the final leaving felt perfect. Pure. The most distilled possible form of liberation. Everything that mattered except one lousy picture was in the trash, but it felt so great. I started jogging, wanting to put even more distance between myself and school. It is so hard to leave—until you leave. And then it is the easiest goddamned thing in the world.” ― John Green , Paper Towns
