I Didn't Invent the Rainy Day, I Just Own the Best Umbrella

It really is a great umbrella. But it's really not about that...

Lately I've been doing a lot of thinking about my life and some of the decisions I've made. I'm starting to realize that a lot of the time, the people I've chosen to spend my time with and the groups I've decided to join really have made all the difference for me and affected how I choose to spend my days.

Like today, for instance, when it's grey outside and not a particularly "nice" day. The weather is drizzly, chilly and gloomy. However, while I could have stayed inside and hibernated, instead I went to an event at a friend's house and met some new people. Afterwards I went for a run in my neighborhood despite the start of the light precipitation. And, both of these choices, have inspired me not only to write in my blog, but also to start planning for the weeks ahead. I've started to remember things that were important to me.

And I've been losing sight of that recently. Ever had times when you have felt like you are just merely existing verus living?
