Life Is Too Short To Be Anything But Happy

Funny how I'm sitting here getting ready to blog for the evening and I start streaming the radio from my Itunes to listen to some 90's music and they happen to be playing "All That She Wants" by Ace Of Base. Of course when it got to the chorus "All that she wants is another baby" I couldn't help but chuckle while thinking (That's a negative, Ghostrider!) Figured I better start practicing now just in case I ever find myself tempted to plunge into the darkness again. Because we both know I'm not really going to stop shaving my legs.

I had a good laugh this morning when I arrived at work to find a couple of my co-workers at work briefly discussing making possible bets with each other, as to how long it will take me to cave in. Yep, it's nice to know that some people will always have your back. I'm curious as to whether or not there is a specific age out there that if you find yourself still single then you should worry. Then again if a woman does wait a lengthy amount of time who's to say she isn't holding out for the right one instead of settling for less. I remember telling someone a few months ago when they were down about being single that they should be happy because that just meant they weren't going to settle for anything less than what they deserved.

 I feel like I've gotten my freedom back and that I can start forgiving myself. Sometimes we don't realize that the process of letting go is the same as learning to accept what is. There is so much less pressure when you simply realize that life is too short to be anything else but happy. To just roll with whatever happens without looking back and accept it without being critical. I've had a handful of people this week tell me that I am noticeably more happy then before. That makes me happy and gives me reassurance that I'm making more of the right choices and being true to myself.
