Just me.

People often times ask, say, or mention that they think that I am too negative. And I would have to agree, sometimes.
In a world filled with murder, and children who don't have food, and war, and sickness, and death, and so on where do you find the balance between feeling the negative, doing what you can to help, and being grateful for what you have? Everyday I find myself struggling with that. Most days I am wonderful and happy and grateful for everything that I have, and couldn't ask for more. Some days I find myself so consumed with trying to find something I can do to make a difference in the world, or make a difference in someones life. And yes, every once in a while I find myself feeling sorry for myself wishing that I had more money, or more material things, and so on.
I've just now come to the conclusion that that is the balance. You need to strive to make a difference where you can, be grateful for all that you have, and yes, sometimes, it is even okay to feel sorry for yourself, so long as you don't let that be the majority of what you think about.
I have a wonderful family, a great and supportive husband, and BEAUTIFUL children. I am truly blessed even though sometimes I struggle to see that. It is so easy to be negative in today's world, with all the bad things that happen or that can happen, and all the sad things that you see everyday. Life is a beautiful, ugly, happy, sad, wonderful journey. You just have to take it one day at a time and do everything you can to make every second of everyday count.
I am grateful for EVERYTHING in my life, all the good, bad, sad, and happy. Everything that you go through makes you a stronger person.

I love everyone in my life, whatever role you may play. People are wonderful, amazing creatures. And as I go through life trying to figure everything out, I hope that people can be as understanding to me as I would be to them.
