Reality Check



Thought for the Day: When Life's Bright Side Doesn't Shine, Polish the Dull Side.



After a few days of this blogging stuff, I've decided that I do enjoy the opportunity to sit and weed through my thoughts. It's been quite awhile since I've forced myself to form coherent sentences.

I've noticed though that most of the posts are somewhat "Fluffy." Normally I am not a fluffy kind of gal, but I've decided to try and apply the above thought since the first time I saw it on a billboard a few weeks ago.

The truth is that my life doesn't always sparkle and shine, nobody's does. In fact, at this stage of my life, children's poo (and I'm not talking about the kind that makes it into the diaper or toilet) seems to a damper on my day more often than not. But I'm choosing to shine the dull side and enjoy the little moments when I see this smile.

Hello, my dear old friend! I think what you're writing is wonderful!! You're right, life doesn't always sparkle, but that doesn't mean there can't be peace and even joy in the midst of all that poo (and I know very well what kind you're talking about!) I'm glad you've started this and I look forward to following along with your Litty Bitty Moments! I love you!!
