remember that it is all temporary

I just had such a good day, and it’s quite sad to know, That it was temporary. But, would I have missed it for the world?...... No, of course not. It’s the simple days that count.

Happy…........? Yes :-)

Okay this saying works on many different levels. I’ve used it today and tonight as I am quite ill. Had to take two days off work but hopefully I am better after that. I’m kinda sick of being sick really. This is definetly something I don’t need.

Anyway, one thing I do know is that it’s temporary….....hopefully!

I gave this advice to someone today. I think it keeps things in perspective.

You know, I have been thinking about this and this saying strikes me as pretty much how I lived my life until about 10 years ago.

My life started out pretty confused and for most of it in my younger years I felt like I was on a rollercoaster ride, not really knowing what was coming next. And even back then, when I was quite young, I remember getting through the tough times by reinforcing to myself that it is all temporary. Saying to myself it can’t be like this forever and ever.

As time went by I seemed to lurch from one set of shit events to the next and really doubted my faith in this saying but ultimately, it really is true.

Back then, the fear of it not being temporary was what troubled me, now it’s the opposite. I love my life and the people in it. I want this part of my life to not be temporary but to last as long as possible.

I think the word that best describes this saying is BITTERSWEET.

Now THAT is a fantastic word :-)

I like this in it’s happy and sad and good and bad way. Will ponder on this thought and write more soon
