Clean Slate

I open my eyes, the sunlight streaming through the window… the cool air against my skin making me huddle under my blankets a few minutes more. The sounds from the house reverberating through my ears, my thoughts drift… my thoughts always drift. A feeling overcomes me as I realize that I have awoken to yet another day, one that is new and full of promise. I never know what the day will eventually bring, but I do know that each day starts with the same potential to be better than the last, that is one gift we are all blessed with, a chance to start over every few hours… we just have to take that chance and challenge.

Yep--as cliche' as it sounds, each day IS a new beginning.....and it's always about me and my attitude. Go figure!

You know... a great man once said "And the weirdest thing about a mind. Is that every answer that you find. Is the basis of a brand new cliché." Tim Minchin said that! It is very true, and no matter what in every cliché you will find truth.

Thank you for dropping a comment on my blog :)

I'm hardly like you though. When I wake up I scratch my head and feel groggy. I then look for some food.

I can only think after my shower. (laugh)
