Okay everyone, let's get real about life. It isn't easy, there are so many things that can get you down, it sometimes doesn't work out how you thought it would, and there is always some kind of plot twist in the mix. Even though there is a lot of stuff that can get you down, there is so much to be grateful for! Lately I've been bugged that no matter how hard I try to make things work out perfectly, something almost always has to go wrong. Life can be tough some times, but it doesn't mean you can't be happy. ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING.

(me and my cute mama)

Let's get real here. Have you ever had a day when people just do little things that really bug you? Do you ever have those days where it seems that one bad thing after another keeps happening or you just feel that stuff keeps piling on top of you and you're unable to handle it any longer? Sometimes those days happen on a weekly basis! Life is rough. However, it doesn't mean it isn't doable. Sometimes I just feel so sorry for myself and then I realize that I'm an idiot for doing so. There are lots of other people that have rough stuff happen to them and they still remain optimistic. Take my mom for example. This lady has Chron's and other crazy health problems but is one of the happiest people I know. Every time I come home to visit, she greets me with the most gorgeous smile wanting to know how I am doing. She is awesome. I'll call her up during the week to see how she is doing, and even when she is hurting and battling some other kind of sickness, she always says, "I'm just fine!" It amazes me. She is truly remarkable and I love her a lot. The thing that makes my mom so wonderful is her attitude, smile, and her ability to radiate happiness. I love her and want to grow to become like her! She knows that by being positive, life is a whole lot easier.

Just remember, when a bad day just seems to be getting worse, ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING. Keep going, keep smiling, don't stop looking for the sunshine! Remember how incredibly blessed you are for being able to live in such a wonderful world. When you start loving life, it can't help but love you back.
