If I didn't know better, but dammit I do

It's funny, when it comes to things like riding a bike it's like no time has passed. But I don't think I will ever get uesd to being taken aback when someone moves me. Even if it happened all the time, which it doesn't, because I have taken, maybe not so careful but perhaps reckless, steps to ensure I was never caught off gaurd. Stayed away from the edge to ensure I would never fall. After all, if someone can take your breath away by making you happy, what would happen when they made you sad. The problem with falling is it always happens so fast. Hopefully I can take everything I learned along the reckless path to pave a smoother one. I don't know if "hot headed" is the right word but I have always seemed to be a act first, think later type of person. Although few and far between I have been known to explode in anger, break down in tears, and not only fall but jump in head first. So now maybe I think I can dig my heels in a bit, cool my jets. Take in that initial reaction to things and let it simmer. Apparently those thoughts once I have cooled are much more rational and sensible. Although a part of me just want to let an explosion emplode and see what happnes, most of me knows better.

Embracing the weather

When you don't need to worry there'll be days like this ♫

When it's not always raining there'll be days like this
When there's no one complaining there'll be days like this
When everything falls into place like the flick of a switch
Well my mama told me there'll be days like this 
When you don't need to worry there'll be days like this
When no one's in a hurry there'll be days like this
When you don't get betrayed by that old Judas kiss
Oh my mama told me there'll be days like this 

When you don't need an answer there'll be days like this
When you don't meet a chancer there'll be days like this
When all the parts of the puzzle start to look like they f it
Then I must remember there'll be days like this 

When everyone is up front and they're not playing tricks
When you don't have no freeloaders out to get their kicks
When it's nobody's business the way that you want to live
I just have to remember there'll be days like this 

When no one steps on my dreams there'll be days like this
When people understand what I mean there'll be days like this
When you ring out the changes of how everything is
Well my mama told me there'll be days like this 

Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this
Oh my mama told me
There'll be days like this

Happy Days

100 days of Happiness complete! I'll admit, there were days were I still felt downright nasty, a little blue, but I could still manage to find something to make me smile. Whether it be a treat, a goal, some inspiration to get me though, or even enjoying the down and alone time when I feel I need it.

Even though I didn't feel happy every day I started to really feel thankful. Thankful for the people I have in my life, so many great people. I am thankful I am making being happy a priority and realizing that down time and me time was essential to that. I am thankful I am slowly learning balance, and so thankful that I'm content with the person I am becoming. I am determined to keep this smile on face, and when I look at the day to day I don't see the change but when I look back I realize that it really does take less effort lately to smile, and some days none at all. And I am especially thankful for moments that I can't keep a smile off my face, although I may need to work on enjoying those moments and not worrying about the next. But everything with time. I am even thankful for some of the not so great feelings sometimes, as these feelings are a result of getting out there of taking chances, rather than just feeling blue because life is passing me by. I even feel like for once I can say I know where I am heading for sure in the next couple years... career wise anyways haha! See! Balance! Enjoying the moment and not worrying about the next in everyday life but still heading where I need to go, fingers crossed for smooth sailing,

I think another 100 days will do me well, onto the next 100 Days!
