just be happy...

Well Seth left this morning. Well he and his family. They are going down to Virginia to visit his brother Ryan before Ryan leaves to go on an internship in Singapore for three months. So yea he left today and he'll be back Thursday. I'm going to miss him a lot though. And especially since I have NOTHING to do this week...with the exception of two clogging shows this afternoon.

You know I was thinking yesterday and reading journals, etc. And I began to wonder... why won't some people just let themselves be happy? I can think of a few people I know, one in particular, who really aren't my close friends but aquaintences, and are just so completely negative. I know bad things happen, but news flash they happen to all of us. Good things happen too. Sometimes people do have it bad, but you know you just have to play with the cards you are delt sometimes and wait for the next round when you might get a better hand. I guess it annoys me sometimes, because these people are the first ones to put everyone and everything down. And complain about EVERYTHING. I just think its a selfish attitude to have. I can't understand why people CHOOSE to live their life unhappy. Because you do have a CHOICE.

"You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses" ~Ziggy

You can decide to be happy with what you have been blessed with, or you can choose to be unhappy with all you don't have. I mean things could ALWAYS be worse. ALWAYS. Another quote I like is:

"Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy."

-Robert Anthony

That was just my wondering... why do people choose to be unhappy, and choose to put others down because they're unhappy. Choosing to shut people out instead of caring. Of course, nobody's perfect, but I just don't understand why people choose to live their lives that way. I guess the moral of my story can be summed up in this anonymous quote... "ENJOY LIFE...THERE'S PLENTY OF TIME TO BE ŠEAD".

Ok I'm done with that... haha I was just thinking about that last night. *Sigh* I miss Seth already. :( Well 5 days to go...

Well I'm going to go get ready for our shows. TTFN!
