Focus

The old saying goes, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." Frankly, it's why there tends to be such long pauses between my posts. Let me explain...

My original intention with this blog was to share some of my more unusual life experiences (of which there tend to be more than my fair share). But I'm the kind of person who feels positive begets positive, as well as negative begets negative. I also feel there is enough drama in the world (and on the Internet) without me posting more. This makes sharing pieces of my life difficult at times, especially when not all is positive.

The fact of the matter is, is that bad things happen to good people (well, bad things happen to bad people too, but that's beside the point). It is precisely how you choose to focus on the event that makes all the difference. Perspective is a difficult lesson, but an important one. My father taught me that.

So when I write these entries, I will occasionally touch base on certain major events in my life. But I also do occasionally read back through this blog. And when I do, I personally don't want to read a blog that's nothing but a bunch of whiney, bitching and complaining, even if it's justified. I'd much rather giggle at the insanity that is my life.

Because I don't know about you, but sometimes I need to remember that life... Well.... That's some funny shit.
