The azaleas bloomed today. Life is absolutely beautiful.
I really have no grounds to think that as mine is royally screwed up at the moment, but you want to know something? When is life NOT screwed up? So should I wait for everything to be in order before I believe it to be incredibly wonderful? At this point, I'm finally thinkin' no.
I think, after one hugely long streak of finding the BAD things in life, I've hit on a streak of finding the GOOD things in life. It fills me up. I'm so much...more complete?...than I ever was when all I could think about was problems. I still have them, to be sure, but how do I always manage to forget this feeling in favor of a strife rife state of constant crisis? It's ridiculous and yet human. But the important thing is that I am alive. I am alive even though I have problems and those problems WILL NOT KILL ME. I have problems, but the azaleas are still just about the prettiest thing I've ever seen, and guess what else? They STILL look like elf hats! I love azaleas! We have three different colors, you know. No, wait, I think we may have four. And a daffodil. The Centenary campus is the proud owner of one single daffodil. I love daffodils. Probably one of the only flowers I love more than azaleas.
Gosh, I love life.
Back to homework.
