The Revitalization of my Life-Day 31


It's amazing when you sit back and think about what you have in your life and realize that life is better than good, it's FANTASTIC! I woke up this morning with a lot on my mind. Well, to be honest I went to bed with a lot on my mind. Thoughts were running through my head at 70 mph. The more I tried to stop them the more they just kept coming. Then I thought about the things that I had written for others to read. I thought about the different methods that I had posted in my previous post. So I took my own advice. I sat down and meditated for a while. Once the thoughts stop running and stated walking, I took a few minutes to just reflect on the things that I have and not the things that I don't have. Now it all made sense. In order for you to really appreciate the things that you have you have to sit down and just reflect some times. By the time I got myself together, another thought came to mind. I starting thinking about how you should always do something special when your not feeling well. When your not at your best, work harder at being you.

I got up and left for work early because I wanted to put some time into my novel. As I left, I asked myself, "what can I do to better myself while I am not feeling to well?" I immediately stop by the store and picked up some flowers and took them to my wife at work. On the card it read-"just because it's FRIDAY!" I dropped off the flowers and continued on my journey. I made my wife feel better than she was feeling and made myself feel better as well. Sometimes it's not about you even when you think its suppose to be about you. If you make it your business to always make it about the other person, you will never go wrong...never. Everyday that I live I make it abut my wife. It's not always in the form of flowers, but it's always about her. Even when she doesn't see it, it's about her. Even if she never knows it, it's about her. I look for nothing in return because what I do for her comes from the heart. I take that back, its deeper than that. It comes from the soul. If she never tells me she loves me, I won't get mad because she married me. I have her for life. If she never buys me anything for my birthday, Christmas or any holiday, I won't say a word because she gave me her heart on July 3, 2010. That was the only gift I ever needed to be a satisfied man.

We have to stop looking at the surfaced and start looking and the core. Because the core is what keeps us sustained. The surface just keeps our imaginations inspired. I realized that love was deeper than just falling in love a long time ago. It's deeper than just saying I Love You. It's deeper than buying gifts. It's so deep sometimes that only the person that you are with can see it and that's all that matters. And when it's that deep, no one can ever touch. It can't be scratched because it's not on the surface. It can't be blemished because it's at the core.
