Life's Too Short to be Anything But Awesome

7/8/2011

The above title just so happens to be my motto! Sure life can be happy, but that's not what life is truly about. While God does want us to be happy, He never promised that life would be comfortable. I've resolved to try as many over-the-top stunts and one-time deals as I'm allotted with my time. And why not? No one ever went anywhere spectacular without determination and effort. 
If we were to sit all day and "be safe," we'd all be stuck in our respective home continents under the rule of some dusty old monarchs! It blows my mind just how lucky we are to live in a free country. Personally, I believe that most of us take this for granted all too often. "Do I really have to sit in this traffic? Don't they know I need to be somewhere?!" "I hate this job, it's SO terrible." Um, excuse me? You have a variety of foods to eat, clean water at your disposal, adequate clothes on your back, and change in your pocket. That's pretty good actually!
The majority of our citizens rank in the top 2% of average income in the entire world. Take a moment to ingest that a wee bit longer. Two. Percent. That equates to even our lower middle class families to be better off than 98% of the rest of the world. That's not a small feat with over six billion people inhabiting the planet.
In short, I'm not trying to minimize your pain. We all have issues in some form or another. Just please, look on the bright side and try not to get quite so frustrated. Now doesn't traffic seem like so much smaller an annoyance? xx
