I have had a pretty bad week, blog fans. It has been really hard to summon up my Thursday Thanks. I am always grateful for the things and people in my life, but everyone has bad days and summoning up positivity on some days is a little tricky, even for me. Still, I have devoted myself to inspiring peace, living my passions, and celebrating love, and I am here to do that by giving thanks for the things that have gotten me through the week.
~Beatles songs. In 26 years, I have never been let down by Paul, George, or John. And I suppose in the context of The Beatles, I have never been let down by Ringo either.~
~Living right by Baja Sol and Caribou Coffee. Although my bank account is probably less grateful for this than I am~
~Websites that promote Gadfly that didn't even tell us they were doing it! This happens the most with play submissions, people will e-mail us and say "I saw your ad on ____)," and I will be floored, as I had no idea.~
~Similarly, people who say "Oh, yeah, I've heard good things about you guys," and again, I am floored that people are saying good things that I haven't heard them say!~
~Writing workshop days with the roomie~
~Naps. OH, and big, fluffy blankets.~
~Friends who can troubleshoot computer viruses via Instant Messenger~
~Bad weeks. Seems counter-intuitive if I'm all about happiness, but they make me appreciate what I have on good weeks even more~
~Being able to stand on my own two feet without selling out. I could say a lot more about this, but I'll leave it at that.~
I'm honestly spent you guys. I do love you all and hope that things are going well. Until next time, I wish you peace, passion, and love.
Isn't it interesting how bad things can turn into great things when they offer perspective?
ReplyDeleteAnd Beatles and soy lattes are two of my bad-thing cures too :)
