I choose HAPPY!


Well, I have been contemplating updating and maintaining my pre-exisiting blog for a while now. I think today is the day. I have so much to tell and so few to tell it to, but feel it still needs to be said.

Today was a good day! I woke up and worked out with my husband, the best workout partner a girl could have. Most days we don't work out "together" but we always work out together, if that makes any sense? Well, my husband, Gus is my biggest fan and the greatest guy a girl could have! We really do enjoy each others company over any others. I love to work out with him, he has such a positive attitude all the time and really pushes me to be better, inside and out. So working out with, or around him, makes me want to be better and to try harder. Every morning, well almost, we get up and head to our home gym, aka garage, and we work out. He does his thing and I do mine.. but we are "together" and it makes me feel happy!
So today, I feel blessed and oh so grateful (or as I tell Gus, "I'm Lucky") to be living such a full life filled with love. I have a partner who loves me and adores me and I in return, love and adore him just the same; I really don't know how much better it can get than that!?

So on the subject of being positive, I am becoming to dislike Facebook, for so many reasons but mostly because so many people post such negative things on there. Gus tells me I should just delete those people and as bad as I want to, to be honest, the ones that are sooo negative are people that I am related to and I hate to say anything in fear that I will make someone upset and I can't just delete my family. I am so torn on this. I enjoy Facebook for some things, I love sharing my photos and my life with close friends and family, but when is enough really enough? I consider myself to be a pretty positive person, I mean I have no reason not to be, I am living a good life. But I also know the life that I am living was created by my positive attitude and a lot of hard work, so I appreciate it even with the little ups and downs.
So I guess that is where today has brought me, I wrote an opinion, not in a negative way in the least and I was made out to be a bad person and I am, and I quote "not cool".. since when is sharing how you feel a bad thing? Oh well, I just try to shrug it off and realize, no matter how hard we try, we can't make everyone else happy and not everyone else really wants to be happy.
So I will end with the day in a positive note:

"The trick is in what one emphasizes.
We make ourselves miserable,
or we make ourselves happy.
The amount of work is the same."
-Carlos Castanada

I choose HAPPY!
