A Good Day…

by

I don’t know, sometimes you just have a series of bad days, those days that make you think that maybe, just maybe, you shouldn’t bother to get out of bed.

But then you start your day and the small child you made breakfast for shrieks in happiness instead of demanding something else; and then the small child wraps his arms around your neck four times and says “I love you, Auntie”; and your best friend comes over and you watch two horror movies and then you pick some beans from the garden for dinner; and you also get corn and peas; and you ride your horse and he is just so wonderful you could cry, and then after that you eat so much steak at dinner that you just may make yourself sick…

And you think, OK, maybe I can keep doing this whole ‘being upright and conscious’ thing.
