This I believe
I believe that life is too precious to not live every day to its fullest.
There is a common saying said by many people “tomorrow’s another day”. But is there always a tomorrow? We hope there is but that is not always true. Many people take a lot of things for granted. Whether it is the people in their life, how blessed they are financially, or how successful they are, I believe the largest and most important thing commonly taken for granted is life.
The scary thing about life is that for many people, it is very routine. Obviously every day is different but at night you go to bed, and the next morning you wake up and here is another day. It is thought eventually you will pass away, but that wont be for another sixty or seventy years. There are fragile and precious things in our life, but nothing is as fragile and precious as life itself.
A special person in my life taught me this. My great grandfather was a man of many words. His wisdom was unbelievable and his stories were always inspiring. He was one of the happiest people I have ever known in my life. No matter what was going on in his life, no matter how hard he struggled, he was happy. He lived his life to the fullest he possibly could, and enjoyed every minute of it. This, is why I believe in that life is too precious to not appreciate everyone in your life and to not live it to the fullest. When my great grandfather passed away, I only had one regret. It was that I did not get to tell him I loved him. I just thought, eh, there will be plenty more times that I can tell him I love him. That was not true. He passed away before I got that chance, so I believe that you should never wait, never hold back when it comes to something you want to do, because you really never know if there will be another opportunity to do what you wanted to do.
Though its only been 17 years, I feel like I have been through a lot in my life. Many things do not go the way I wish they would, but I have learned to not dwell on them, and to think positively. The difference between me and someone else, is that the phrase “Think Positively” is just constantly mentioned to them, but it has no impact on them. It goes in one ear, and out the other and they continue to look at the glass half full. You have to have the mindset to turn things around, and look at the bright side, and to make the best of every situation. You cannot let things in life get you down. Life’s a roller coaster and will always have its ups and downs. But life is short, sometimes shorter than you may really think, and that’s why I personally believe that you should enjoy every day and live each and every minute like there will not be a tomorrow.
Life is a very precious thing. Some people carry on through life, just moving along living an average, okay life. Life can be anything you make it. No matter your situation, life will be what you make of it. It is too fragile and short to not make the best of every situation and to be positive about things. Not every day is perfect, but why let it stay as a bad day? Turning that bad day into a better day is a key aspect of living your life. I know that at the end of my life I want to look back and know, that I enjoyed every single minute of it. Life is precious, so live it to the fullest.

Running Out
Im running out of things to type about in these blogs. I guess im just not that creative to continue to "creatively write" a blog every Sunday. Sunday is the day I want to relax and go to bed at night, not write a blog. Its okay though. Well right now Im laying on this couch. My feet are on an ottoman (automan?, attomann?) Yikes. I dont know how to spell it. Ive got a gatorade on this little ledge for easy access for when Im thirsty. I still have this orange wristband on my wrist from the Haunted Forest community service I did. Oh was that fun. I ran around a forest in a scooby doo costume trying to scare kids. Instead, they just told me how much they loved me and all tried to hug me. Oh well.
Well thats enough. Bye.
Well thats enough. Bye.

Title
This week was perfect. Everything went well except for the fact that I worked a lot. Work is starting to get old, especially long hours after school, but I guess I have to make money some how. The day just seems like it goes on forever, because I start at 6:30 and dont catch much of a break until around 8.
Besides dreading work, im looking forward to a short week next week. Late arrival with early release will make for a nice short day.
Im glad this week went the way it did. I havent been this happy in a while and it feels good. I hope things stay the way they are, because I like them this way.
Its time to sleep now though.

Cold Weather
I love cold weather. I hate warm weather and love cold weather. If I could choose any type of clothes to wear, it would be jeans and a sweatshirt. You cant definitly cant wear that in warm weather. I love the cold and how it feels. Im always much more comfortable in the cold. In hot weather, youre hot and nasty, but in the cold youre just comfortable and warm. I love being outside in cold weather, just walking around and doing things, its the best. Cold weather also means snow and i love snow. Snow is the best type of precipitation by far. You can do so many things in snow. You can play in it, walk in it, run in it, enjoy life in it. In rain you cant because when it rains it just isnt fun. You dont want to go outside or walk around. But in the snow you do. You can do so many more activities in snow than in rain. You definitly cant do anything in hail, and acid rain would make you melt. I think thats all forms of precipitation. So snow is the best type of precipitation, and snow only comes when its cold out. So cold weather is the best.
