What's Important To You

Sometimes, it's easy to lose sight of what's truly important in our lives, especially in this day and age of social media.  All you need to do is to log onto Facebook to feel like your life is crap 😂😂😂. In fact, you don't even have to go very far. Just step outside of your house, look at the posh cars sitting in your neighbors' homes and you're ready to beat yourself up over the head.  I think that's the most futile exercise on the planet. Everyone's got their own wars to go through and as long as we continue to compare our lives to that of others, we're not going to be  right here  to celebrate whatever wins we have! .  I spent a large part of my life yearning for what others have and what they think of me.

Where life is a smorgasbord of possibilities, fuzzy whimsical snowflake magic, and rainbow-colored skies. Other days, not so much. While on the way to drop the kids off at their center, I was butt-kissed. In other words, through no fault of mine, someone slammed into the back of my car. Nothing serious happened, thank goodness and I was very relieved that damage to the car appears minimal. A  veryyyyyyy  slight dent and I think we can handle that kind of dent. The woman even had to chase me down on the road to ask me if there was anything wrong with my car because it sounded loud when she slammed into me. To cut a long story short, I thought I was hit by another car from th
