Homebody

one of those tall blue propane tanks lasts me 171 days

just spending some quality time with myself and my house and my flaws and my impeccable sense of humour and my camera and my kitchen. i have to admit i’m pretty darn good company. these days i am the happiest and most content i’ve been in 2008 thus far. and it just keeps getting better.

what’s changed?

not a single thing other than my perspective. i wish i could explain further, but i’m not a good enough writer. suffice it to say, it’s somehow sunk in that how we handle adversity (and pressure and stress and disappointment) is what makes us who we are. i know who i don’t want to be and am moving away from that.

i know who i do want to be and am moving toward that.

all the while eating lots and lots of cinnamon toast.

    Funny, I went through that earlier… this year or was it the end of last. I can’t remember. But the mental shift sure makes a difference.

    I wish I could find that other perspective… but I am hopeful that one day it will come along.

    Glad to hear you’ve found it ;)
