In The Words Of Another 2.0
I've been working on being more grateful. Positive energy begets positive thoughts, actions, and a positive lifestyle. What can make you happier than thinking about all the things you've been blessed with. :) I love happy people.
| I am thankful for... | by Nancie J. Carmody |
- ...the mess to clean up after a party
- because it means I have been surrounded by friends.
- ...the taxes I pay
- because it means that I'm employed.
- ...the clothes that fit a little too snug
- because it means I have enough to eat.
- ...my shadow who watches me work
- because it means I am out in the sunshine.
- ...the spot I find at the far end of the parking lot
- because it means I am capable of walking.
- ...all the complaining I hear about our government
- because it means we have freedom of speech.
- ...that lady behind me in church who sings off key
- because it means that I can hear.
- ...lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing
- because it means I have a home.
- ...my huge heating bill
- because it means that I am warm.
- ...weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day
- because it means that I have been productive.
- ...the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours
- because it means that I am alive.

Playing It Safe
Sometimes I feel like I get in my own way. Like I make it impossible for people to form truly meaningful relationships with me, be it romantic or platonic. I feel this way a lot, in all aspects of my life. I feel like I don’t give enough to my career. Like my whole life I’ve played in neutral. Not totally fucking it up(Sorry mama), but not aggressively pursuing anything. Anything.
I was an average student in high school. I passed all my tests with As but refused to do homework. I wasn‘t outright failing but I didn’t put out any effort to make anything above a C. I wasn’t really in any clubs. I ended up in the Theatre program only because I didn’t make the Musical Theatre program. I was on the step team for maybe a month, but never performed. I’ve never really pursued any friendships I just hung out with people who hung out with me. I’ve played my entire life in auto-pilot. Giving just enough to get by. Why?
What can I do to break out of this shell? It truly feels like I’m fighting myself sometimes. I’m stuck in a mediocre frame of living. I can see myself gliding through life and I’m fighting, but… I’m terrified. Terrified that if I actually, genuinely, give all of me and fail…
Nevertheless, I’m working on it. Fighting everyday to live. I falter as every one does and there are days where the fear brings on depression and I won‘t get out of bed, but then there are times where I’m out in the world: taking chances, stopping traffic, pursuing my dreams. It’s a work in progress, but I want to live and live vigorously.
