I never learned to count my blessings, I choose instead to dwell in my disasters.

I think this lyric from Ray Lamontagne’s “Empty” is a pretty good summary of the feelings I have had for the last couple months.  Sometimes although things may be going well in a lot of aspects in our lives, the bad things that have happened stay with you.  And it’s true, the best way to learn from your mistakes is to carry them with you.

Things have been going very well for me lately.  College is close to being done.  Things in other aspects of my life are working out.

I will try to write at least 2 posts per week.  I’m sorry I let you go so long without any posts.  I have so many topics I want to write about jotted down in notebooks and scraps of paper, but just haven’t had the time.

Never underestimate the power of a smile.  It is contagious and you can bring about great change with just the teeth in your mouth.
