I didn't really understand what you were asking/saying from your fisrt post, but I get it a little more from your second.

Sometimes I don't feel the joy anymore like I used to. Sometimes it feels like the best is behind me. I just try to stay busy. Try to not think about it, not look back or ahead, just look at right now, at the task at hand.

Get up, take a shower, eat, read, feed the dogs.

Life is not a parade. It's not a load of laughs and constant smiles. But when I do see that cashier, I figure her life is not a parade either. Maybe I can say something nice, amke her laugh, make her day better. And that makes my day better too.

One laugh at a time and I come out of it until things don't seem so bad. You never know what's ahead. You don't have to plan them they just happen. But they're not going to just walk into your kitchen, you have to go find them, and see them when they happen. I have to open my eyes to them, if you know what I mean. I have to be in the frame of mind to be able to do that.



I hope you find that.
