Shifting Perspectives

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

It always seems that my life erupts into chaos this time of year.  Everything shifting and changing.

This time last year, I nearly died.  No.  It is not an exaggeration.

This year, I lost my cousin. Nearly lost my dog and my Australian friend (I thank all that’s holy that the word nearly can be used). Wound up with my hand in a cast, a bill I’d forgotten about showing up and various and sundry other fun and wonderful things.

But, interestingly enough, I find myself rolling with it all better than I expected.  Maybe I’m in a state of perma-denial or maybe it hasn’t all hit me, yet.  I don’t know.  But, oddly enough, at this moment in time…life seems pretty good.

Who in their right mind would complain about that?
