I'm not sure what motivated me to get up this morning at start this except for yesterday I was feeling very low almost depressed because I haven't heard anything from any of the job applications that I've put out except for the rejections, but anyways...I decided to get out my diary (I hadn't written in over a year) and I started reading my past entries from last year when I didn't have a job and I was going through the whole emotional roller coaster of finding a job. What I found was a quote that I had written in there, "Each day is new day with no mistakes in it!" I remember hearing that quote given to Anne Shirley by Miss Stacey in Anne of Green Gables. And I realized that I needed to start by looking at the brighter side of life and focusing on my blessings rather than my troubles. My troubles seem nothing compared to those people in Joplin who lost everything including their jobs. Who am I to be wallowing in Self-Pity!! "Self, it's been fun, but I've found something else!" My life!!! To live my life to the fullest!! And frankly eating 6 to 8 cookies daily if not more is not going to help me to see my future in a healthy way!! I've always wanted to live to see our countries 300th BD! And I want to be healthy enough to do it even at 90! Anyways, this is a new beginning!!! I am making the commitment today! I realize that there will be days when I loose control of my life, but I know that each day is a new day with no mistakes in it!! Persevere to the lower goal! :P
