Days Go By

Our days are meant to be trivial. There's a full 24 hours to each day and I find that they might get boring if they were consistently the same. Of course, I'm not a fan of the day full of constant horribleness but a day with a few interesting turns is never a day wasted. You can start your morning on the wrong side of the bed but by afternoon be a ray of sunshine. Your attitude is your choice, anything else that you think constitutes that is false. So truly the triviality of our everyday lies not in what comes at us but in what we give out. To sound completely cheesy, give out the best of things: hugs, laughter, smiles and a positive attitude. I know it sounds corny but just keeping a smile on your face and walking with a little bounce in your step isn't some form of perky, its an enlightened state of mind. Your trueness should be your happiest-ness, anything outside of that is negative and false. The trivial things of everyday make that trueness hard to stand by sometimes, but its way better being happy than not. So instead of getting frustrated that you just walked across campus, realized you left your computer charger and have to go back, don't get all grumpy about it. Its another opportunity to walk in the sunshine.

In terms of relationships, don't let what your relationship has become or where it is going erase what your relationship has always been. Really, don't think about your relationship at all. You chose that other person for a reason, and its all about them and you. When you look at the bond, you lose the parts, just like if you look at the bad you lose the good.

Here's to you baby and keepin' the good times rollin'.
