Funny thing... This post was already written. I typed it up earlier today and archived it so I could proofread and approve it later. Well it's later... Though the events of the day haven't changed my perspective sure has.
I'd been feeling really positive about at lot of things and after carefully organizing my week Friday was suppose to be my highlight. My day. I'd hibernated most of the week due to subzero temperatures and a need/desire to attend to everything possible. Trying to be frugal and scheduled would allow me to escape into the active world. I had some errands that would land me at Starbucks. I have a gift card I'm itching to use and I'd bring my laptop to start some serious job searching. Exciting, eh? Obviously things are a little mundane here because I've been looking forward to it all week.
It wasn't meant to be. None. Once I had given and I became a little bit more realistic and more forgiving things began to fall into place or so I thought...My car wouldn't start due to the bitter cold. Ben had a flat tire. Life didn't care about my precision. I was starting to wonder what happened to my banked karma points. Panic hit. Freak out followed.
After my attitude mellowed, my eyes opened. I realized how often I don't have to face real problems. The last time my car didn't start or we had a flat tire has honestly been close to 5+ years. Real life happens but we've been lucky enough to not be faced with issues all that often. Some things that could have been major issues, failed appointments, huge unplanned cost weren't. Being stranded at home really isn't half bad. Everything has been shifted for tomorrow and the excitement of today has made it'll all a bit clearer.
