I have been feeling a little down lately, stressing about events that are not even here yet. Today was just what the doctor ordered. It was thirteen degrees and the sun was shining down through the clear blue sky. I know we have not had much of a winter but, today was a welcome sight. I believe winter affects the moods of a lot of us and the upcoming spring and summer will help get the right endorphin's going in the brain again.
Jodi and I went for a great walk with Ollie today. It was amazing seeing everyone out enjoying the fresh air like bears coming out of hibernation for the first time. The side walks are often like ghost towns through the winter months and the weather today brought some life back to our town. The grass was a welcome sight, cannot wait to get the mower going again. I take great pride in my lines as Jodi will tell you.
It is a funny thing. Every time I feel I cannot face an upcoming challenge, something joyful shows itself to me. Today was the beautiful weather. Sometimes it is a song on the radio. Ollie may greet me at the door wagging his tail profusely. Is it divine intervention, perhaps. What I do know is that I am very thankful for the positive energy that does fly in when I really need it. It keeps things in perspective for me and helps me stay focused on living strong.
Read something inspiring this week. Take care, Shawn
