a day in the life...

I often wonder "how did I get here?"

Not physically here... cause that would be scary, and I think I might need to some professional help with that one. but different times in life when you sit back and look at life wondering how it all came to be YOUR life. you know what I mean?

it's not necessarily bad or good. just the acceptance and realization of how you fit into the whole. how your piece fits into the whole puzzle. (dirty minds, get out of the gutter)...

does anyone ever reflect and think "Hmmm, this is exactly how I pictured myself!"? I honestly doubt it. And realistically there are things you love and things you don't love about the reality of your current life vs. your past perception of your future (which is currently your present). HAHA, you follow?! :-)

But all in all- we are who we are. We have to be who we are with all we have, cause that's all we are good at being.... so why do people get so tripped up? It's not so hard right?

1. Be yourself
2. Appreciate your lot (no matter whether it's what you expected or not)... like the lyrics from the old hymn, It Is Well With My Soul... "Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say, It is well, It is well, with my soul."

Ah. I just wish we could all be there. It would make our interactions with each other much easier. No confusion, or muddling through weird emotions.

But we are not. and so it is not. and so we must continue to handle life as it is dealt to us.

And so.... I do my part as best I can, and I have to just day "such is life". We cannot make life more and we cannot make life less. It IS what it IS. (in the wise words of my friend Ricky) ;-)

It IS what it IS.
