I shall cover you all with optimism, even if I don't wanna!

“A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”
~Winston Churchill~

There's a lot of ideas I've been running through my head on what to do with my blog, and I've just decided that it wouldn't be me to just stick with one thing or one theme behind it. I'm a random person, and so shall be my blog as well. There will be days that I'll be random, and attempting to be funny, and somewhere in all of that something intelligent may or may not come out of it. But one thing that will always be the same is that I am me and there's nothing that can be done about it.

Today I decided I wanted to pretend to be inspirational. Yeah, right...But hey, it's my imagination so I'm gonna roll with it. The main lesson I've learned today is that pride is something that should be taken in small doses. For some reason, I've had it in my head that things suck really badly right now. I've been hitting a lot of walls in life, so to speak, and have been very frustrated and discouraged because of it. Work's stressful, life is hard, and things sometimes suck....AND!? That's nothing new, so why is it today I decided to be all mopey and silly about it rather then take life in hand and walk the journey of experience.

I have many things that I am very grateful for, which I'm not going to name here, but I will say that they've helped remind me what it is that's important in life and I'm not going to let myself keep dwelling on the unimportant things anymore. The optimist in me has decided to speak, and so I shall listen to it and not be all silly anymore.

We have 3 cats here where I live, and they make life interesting sometimes. But one thing that I've always enjoyed about animals, is that they help teach you not to take life so seriously all the time. Even now as I'm typing, our black kitty is laying in my lap wanting attention, and sometimes it can be a pain in the you know what, but to be honest it just wouldn't be the same without that cute little furry face looking up at me purring and telling me that he loves me and is there for me when I need it. I mean come on, who wouldn't love a cute, black, furry face looking up at you with his golden eyes of adoration and love? He's got plenty of love nomnoms for anyone willing to pet him and love him back.

I honestly didn't really want to write anything today, but I figured it's been awhile since I've posted a blog, and what's the point in having one if you don't write in it? So, in all my randomness and writing I hope that I at least cheered someone up with my random optimistic quotes of awesome. And now I bid you all adieu! Au revoir, mes amis!

"Dream because everyone else tells you not to. Live your life for you because someone wants to tell you what you should be doing. Be who you are and what you want to be, not what someone else makes you out to be."
