You take some good, you take some bad...you take em both and there you have...

the facts of life.

One fact of life that I do know is that for every bit of negative energy that we expel, we need to expel twice as much positive to combat it.

So- you got my blog of family regretables.

Now you get two small short things that I am thankful for.

1. I am thankful that my friend "J" is alive. That may seem odd to some to say but today...I am thankful that he is above ground cause every day that he can say that is a battle won.

2. I am thankful for technology. In the course of writing this evening, I was able to talk to boyfriend in Singapore, video chat with best friend who never fails to make me look at certain things in a light that I would never of seen and watch Gossip Girl almost simultaneously. I am also thankful that I am good at multitasking. :)

See, I have some light in here too...it's not all dark, doom and gloom ;)
