Hmm... Con't?

"I hope I never become so used to the world that it no longer seems wonderful." - Ashleigh Brilliant

Not long after I wrote my last entry, I recieved a card with this quote on it. Seemingly perfect and a good combination.


I've been having some of those random, unexplained moments in time that make me worry, stressed, and a complete hazard to be around. I know that a lot of it is stress at work and while I was pretty confident that I'd figured out what I needed to do about that, I realized today that it might not have worked to my advantage.

I started realizing that in my poor attitude, I was really starting to drag not only myself down, but those around me that I love and care about. That's a bad sign.

I was able to speak to my supervisor, and while I'm not happy about a lot of other events at work, I was able to switch to a much smaller work-load. Hopefully, this will give me the opportunity to take care of the last of the wedding planning and all the housework I've been neglecting.

As for the inspirational quote at the beginning?

I was given that card just as I was realizing that I was losing sight of all the wonderful things in this world. It really is easy to be so used to something, that you forget the magnitude of it. While the world as a whole is hard to lose, all the little pieces of it that are a part of our lives can get lost in the everyday grind that wears us down. By merely trudging through life, we manage to forget all the wonderful things.

I never want to forget those. :)
