On the other end of the spectrum from my last entry...
Some things I really do love about my life.
First and foremost, I love my girlfriend, Nancy. She is my saving grace at the end of everyday.
I love the fact that I can be really mature about certain things, and then quickly regress back to my childhood to appreciate things such as: Cartoon shows and films, Videogames Videogames Videogames (I really do enjoy the time that I can get lost in these other digital worlds. I"ve been playing Elder Scrolls Oblivion on my XBOX 360, and when I see the amount of hours I've spent creating these characters ... first I think to myself, Wow, I need to get a life or do something more constructive. After that, I think about how much fun I'd had while wasting those hours. And I decide that it's all worth it. Life isn't all about working toward things, you can stop and take some hours for yourself and just have a good time in something you enjoy.)
I love my band. As much as I'd like it to be something more than what it is, I do enjoy that at least to some degree I get to strut my writing talents and such. It's frustrating at times, and discouragement comes real easy. Though, we keep doing it when we can, jamming on new material, and just try to entertain a little bit, maybe even connect with someone in the process.
I love the fact that despite the hand that I'd been dealt, I retain a certain level of dignity, pride, and hope for a future that is far better than today. When you're sick like I am, it's very easy to give up on everything, just to say "Fuck it!" and go hide somewhere. But, I go out, I organize, I care, I move in a forward direction regaurdless of how much time it might take me to get there, I use my talents everyday I'm alive whether it be through drawing, writing, singing, or just creating scenarios to keep my life and the ones around me interesting at best.
So what do you love about your life?
