I am sure we have all gathered from this outlet that I am a pretty happy lady. Which is true; except lately. I have been miserable.
Stressed. Anxious. Bitchy. Emotional.
These adjectives should not be anywhere near me as a person.

The truth is, I am not happy with my life, and it's my own fault. But that isn't my point here. My point is; life is simple, happiness is simple. I have forgotten that lately and this week I am putting that mantra back into my decision making.
I've said it before and I will say it again. No one lives your life but you. No one else is allowed to tell you how to feel or what decisions to make, because they aren't making them or having to feel the way you do.
Life isn't short. It is actually pretty damn long. Which is scarier to me than the whole "short" theory. If you aren't enjoying the place where your life is now, and are continuing to do nothing about it...guess what? You are settling into decades upon decades of hating your life.
Ideally, one day you will be sitting at your awful desk job and the life fairy will appear out of thin air and grant you a better job and poof away your love handles as an added bonus. If anyone knows of that happening, give me a call. As far as I know, if you waste time simply hating your job and your fat ass, tomorrow you will still have a terrible occupation and a lumpy butt.
If you want Jillian Michaels' body, you aren't going to get it by wishing. If a job is making you miserable, it won't stop through positive thinking and no action. You must change your every day routine to improve your tomorrows.
I guess people see life as short because they waste too much of it. Once it has passed, we can't reclaim it. I don't want to look back on a single stage of my life and consider it wasted. Our crazy materialistic ideals are what bounds so many of us to a miserable life. Some people believe despite the words of my four favorites, in this economy and country, love is not all you need.

I say, isn't it though?
