February!

Jan 24, 2009 15:56

"Have we forgotten how special Wednesdays can be? Have we forgotten how different November is, when the trees appear in the lean economy of leafless elegance? Have we somehow fallen into the rut where we think that all Mondays are dreary or that February is a difficult month? Have we gotten trapped into comparisons and ingratitudes? Are we in the habit of always putting off an experience until we can afford it? Or until the time is right? Or until we know how to do it? Procrastinating over the joy of being alive is one of the greatest burglars of life I know." - Tim Hansel

This is the spirit I've been looking for, the 'list' of things that I have wanted to accomplish but haven't 'had time' to do... February can be a long, crappy month. This February is going to be better. In the spirit of acknowledging the difference between joy and happiness, I want to be joyful, I want to live and overcome and learn. Happiness is circumstantial, joy is a choice.
