So about a month ago I watched The Secret. The concept behind it makes sense.  I’ve always been a somewhat positive/optimistic person anyway; so, it’s really nothing that new.

I’ve started a small list of my wants.. or rather things that I will be obtaining in the future. Nothing long or selfish. Just practical things. I’m not looking for material stuff really. I’m trying to get in touch with my inner self. On a side note, I also updated my list at 43 things (link is to the right) today. But yeah, every now and then I’m going to make posts about what I’m thankful for and stuff.

Today I’m thankful for my family. I love them dearly. Sometimes they annoy the hell out of me, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Even though I’ve probably wished for that in the past.

When I was going to lunch today, I was listening to the song “Overkill” by Colin Hays. It’s a good song, but I’m way over it. Then I began to think about the episode of Scrubs I saw it in and then just Scrubs in general. All of a sudden, I was happy to be listening to the song. I know that sounds really stupid, but it’s an example of how we more control than we realize. Sometimes it’s just a matter of looking at things from a different perspective. When you do, you can find beauty in things that you never realized was there before.

That happened a lot today. Something weird happened later on, but I’m still trying to figure it out so I won’t write about that yet.
