today, i had an opening experience, not an eye-opening experience more a of realization. i almost lost it at the end of the day. everything went wrong. my email wouldn't send...now this may not seem frustrating to most of you. but to me, i was so excited to walk out the Capitol cafeteria and be outside in the most beautiful weather. i was rather thrilled that my meeting ended a little early. i kept on thinking to myself....this is so great, i can send a couple of emails and i will be outside just in time to catch the last of sunlight. instead i spent one entire hour working to send a rather lengthy and detailed email and it erased. can you imagine, my frustration was at an ultimate high.
luckily the email finally sent. thank goodness. and because i have such an awesome roommate, she went running with me, that way i was able to run a few minutes in the dark. we ran along the shoreline trail. now, back to the opening experience. i think sometimes, we all...myself included, become obsessed with something or put too much of our time towards one thing and forget to find a balance. i will the first to admit....i am in love with my work...maybe too much? is that possible? no. well, i have come to realize more and more that life is about doing what makes you happy. i will admit, works makes me happy...yikes. but as i was running at the top of the shoreline trail with ash....i felt free (jenna you know what i mean)....i felt perfect happiness as i looked across the good old salt lake valley, at the mountains behind me, one of my best friends at my side, and i was running. what more could i want.....not too much. so, if i could leave all of my readers (i know there are not many) with one little thought for the evening, it would be to have a balance and do what makes you happy and feel joy. ok, it's time for me to sleep...how exciting...tomorrow is saturday...i love saturdays.
sleep well my friends.
and oh, i am obsessed with one tv show...i don't even have a tv, i watch it on the internet...how embarrassing. ha. also, it's almost easter and that means my all-time favorite candy has been put on the store shelves. hurry, go an buy yourself a package of the cadbury purple bag small chocolate eggs...before you know they will be gone.
goodnight.
