Well, after all the lemons and drowning in Lemonade for quite sometime, I have realized that no matter what the circumstance we are all a little crazy.. in our own way. Once in a while we are fortunate enough to find someone that's the same color of crazy, but that's the beauty of individuality. I find that if I people watch long enough, which actually happens to be a favorite past time of mine.. I learn something new and intriguing about human behaviors. One of the blessings most of us have been given is the gift of perception. Many of you (if you are reading this) may have never thought of it this way. But, perception~ when truly appreciated~ Is a wonderful gift. Today I can perceive that there is someone hurting... and I can choose to ignore it.. or I can choose to comfort them. I can perceive that someone is Happy and I can choose to be unhappy for whatever menial reason.. "I didn't get what they got" adopting The "grass is always greener" attitude.. or I can rejoice with them. Their Happiness is my Happiness. Their Victory, MY victory. You get the point. The grass MAY just be greener... BUT... It still has to be mowed! So, from this side of Crazy I CHOOSE: COMFORT I CHOOSE: HAPPINESS. I believe that this way of thinking is a beautiful Kind of crazy that most of the world has NEVER seen. I want to be "Crazy" enough to hold the door open for someone... pay for the person behind me in line at the diner or restraunt and I want to be "Crazy" enough to walk up to a complete stranger and give them a compliment or ask someone if they need help with their groceries. THAT kind of Crazy... One person at a time... can be contagious and cause an epidemic... and that's EXACTLY the kind of crazy I WANT TO BE!
A COLORFUL ,CRAZY ,BEAUTIFULLY BROKEN MESS... THAT SPRINKLES LOVE AND KINDESS LEAVEING A TRAIL FOR OTHERS TO FIND THEIR WAY BACK "HOME".
