Embracing the Beauty of the Day: Reflections on Life and Happiness

Happy Friday, today is beautiful out. But hot I'm waiting until night time to take my dog for a walk. He's very big 140lb Rottweiler, but he is amazing. I just went to adoration and said a rosary. My first of the day. I kept dwelling on post things, so much so that I got 12 hours of sleep. I woke up very depressed but after the rosary I feel amazing, and I can't remember what was wrong. So today I'm deciding not to focus so that I remember, but to just live. Live out my day for God. In the moment with my injury I'm always in the moment. I have to go to best buy next to return headphones that I bought on an impulse. I do that all the time I see something I want buy it then instantly regret it. That's why I like shopping in stores instead of online it's so much easier to return. I wish cars were the same. I had those impulses with cars and when I had money they all took advantage of me. Everyone does as soon as I tell them I talk the way I do because of a brain injury they attack. Living in such a big city though a lot of people have trouble with speech and I really don't sound that bad. So I stopped telling people about my injury and it actually makes a big difference. People stop trying to take advantage of me. How sick is that? Today life is great I just got a call from my 3 year old, he kept saying he loves me. God saved life are incredible.
