It doesn't have to be April 1st to make you feel like a fool or to create a hair raising day. That can happen any day of the year. There are days when everything just seems to go wrong, coincidentally I had one of those days today. It was one of those days where it didn't start so great and progressively got worse. I tried to take it in stride, keep going and have fun where I could ....in between the crises.
In spite of the fact that curveballs were being thrown at me from all angles, I kept my resolve. I just kept going...just kept trying to enjoy where I was and who was with me and tried to get through it all in one piece. I am happy to report that, indeed, I am still standing. I have the last laugh on this April Fools Day because I didn't let it get to me...I went with the flow, rolled with those punches...and now that I have gotten this day over with, look forward to a brighter tomorrow.
So often we get caught up in the little details and focus on what's going wrong as opposed to what's going right. I have learned that this too will pass if I just hold on and give it time to pass. So, I try to be thankful for where I am, and who is with me. I try to be hopeful about the future. I try to laugh about it with those I love.....and if all else fails...I head for the chocolate to get me through!
