Today I was “helping” my youngest
sister do her math. She's learning division, something I obviously
learned years ago. As I was “helping” she turned to me and said
“The numbers are getting smaller and smaller every time!”
“ Well yeah, that's what division
does.” I said.
I didn't think anything about it,
to me it was just division, something that I didn't really like and
it was just another chore. For her it was something new, something
exciting.
How would life be if we were able
to find little things like that exciting again?
Sure, I find things exciting. And
sometimes I feel like I find some things a little to exciting. Like a
new eye shadow pallet, or a cast list with a small part, or a new
Broadway soundtrack on my phone. But excitement is a good thing, not
a bad thing. Some people try to push down excitement, everything has
to be nothing. What if we were all able to find everything that
should be at least a little exciting? I'm not talking about
overwhelming excitement when you're eating your favorite food, but at
least thinking about how nice it is, instead of just thinking it as
another meal.
I'm going to be sweet sixteen this
year, and I have about a million plans for a party. I still have 2 ½
months until my birthday. That's almost a fourth of a year. Does that
mean I shouldn't be excited and planning?
Of course not. I'm not hurting
anyone or anything, including myself. So why shouldn't I be excited?
No reason.
So my challenge for you all today
is to try and be excited about at least one small thing this week. At
least try.
So I was looking back at my old
posts, and I realized that I haven't blogged in over a month, almost
two months, and I have blogged less than 30 times this entire month.
I haven't been able to think of anything to post! Any ideas? Comment
