On Some Vaguely Metaphysical Topics...

Hurrah for productivity!

And I'm going to be even more productive, I hope! I'm shoveling down breakfast before I head out on some personal errands, I've still got the porch and bathroom to work on, and tonight K and I are going to go see Ponyo!

It's all terribly exciting.

Changing your life is slow work. I've realized this is something that just needs to be expected. When entirely altering your life philosophy and world view, it's not going to happen overnight. But every day I learn and I grow in some small way, and that's absolutely amazing.

I do wish I knew the secret to completely banishing negativity. I'm trying, I'm trying so hard, but it's difficult with so many negative outside influences. And I try and clear my mind and look at all these things from a different perspective, a sympathetic perspective, but sometimes I just can't. Sometimes there are things that just....refuse to be examined that way. Or, when attempting to examine them from that perspective, there is much disagreement.

So these are things I'm going to be working on the hardest. Negativity effects us in every single way, from the physical to the emotional to the mental to the spiritual. And I've long since grown sick and tired of being sick and tired. :D

I am positive. I am confident. And right now, I'm pretty darn happy. :D
