Yesterday was one of my better days. I went to Six Flags with Sarah, Brent, and Blake. I didn't think it would be crowded but I was wrong. We bought a flash pass which really helped. We actually got to ride all the rides we wanted and didn't have to wait in lines over an hour or longer. I always have fun with Sarah, joking and laughing. Sometimes it's like she is the only one that gets me and understands my humor and even knows what to say when I'm feeling really crappy. The rides we lots of fun! I didn't even get the queezy going down the big hills. Before riding the last ride of the day...Goliath, I was talking about how pretty the clouds looked with the sunset and Sarah told me how happy she was that I wasn't being pessimistic anymore. I didn't realize it, but I hadn't been all day. Go me! All it took was a thrilling trip to Six Flags. I should do that more often! It was like I left all my worries outside of the park. It felt good. We stopped to get something to eat on the way home. Despite the horrible service, I kept cracking up about different things, little things for almost no apparent reason. It felt great to me, but the others were looking at me like I was off my rocker. Who cares! I was wiped out but couldn't manage to fall asleep for a couple hours.
A wise friend of mine told me that she has learned to accept her bad days. She said it helps her to better appreciate the good days she is blessed with. I think I tend to focus on the bad instead of enjoying the good things. She is right. I have been seeing all the bad happening in my life and when I finally experienced a good day, I appreciated it so much more. We are all promised tough times and that we will be able to handle them and overcome them. At times, it's harder to look past the trial into the beautiful unknown. I have a lot of growing up to do still. The Lord has blessed me tremendously. Even though I feel like I've reached my breaking point, things could always be worse. I just have to hold on and go for the ride!
