The Revitalization of my Life-Day 28


As I sit back and look over my life, I can honestly say that I am happy. As I refelct on all of the good and bad times, I can say that I enjoyed them all because I am still here. I read my post from yesterday and got inspired. I got out of bed at 3 a.m. and began to write. You know that you love doing something when you wake up out of your sleep to do it. I must admit that I did have a lot on my mind, but I could have easily stayed in the bed and just thought about it and gone back to sleep, but I didn't. I got up and at it.

Today I just want to refelct on the good things that has happened in my life, along with the bad as well becasue it has made me stronger and wiser. While I was at work yesterday, I just sat back and watched the many different people that walked by me. Some of them had a limp. Some of them had a oxygen tank. Some of them where in a wheel chair. As I looked upon all of these people I had to ask myself, "I wonder what are they thinking when they see me?" Then it hit me, they are probably saying to themselves, "wish I had it like he has it." This is why I live my life to the fullest. This is why I don't stress over nonsense things. I take the time to enjoy what God has given me so that if I end up not having the ability to do something I once did, I can happily say that I enjoyed it when I had it.

Sometimes I just sit and watch the sun set. Sometimes I just sit and watch the sun rise. Sometimes I just sit and listen to music. Sometimes I just go out and run. Sometimes I just take a stroll around the neighborhood. Sometimes I just sit and think about nothing. Sometimes I just sit and thank God. I take the time to do these things because these are the things that matter the most to me in life. These are the things that I enjoy because I feel that these things are what make the world go round.

Today, take the time to enjoy some of the things that you really don't get to enjoy. Take a walk in the neighborhood. Call an old friend and just talk about the good ol days. Call a family memeber and talk about how yall grew up. Just take a little time and enjoy what you use to enjoy before there were cell phones and facebook. Turn off the computer and turn on your imagination, let it run free. Beleive it or not, you just might enjoy yourself.
