Life Is Good

I love my friends. Old, new and rekindled.

I had such a lovely weekend this weekend. Both Friday and Saturday night I sat around a fire with my peeps and just chillaxed. It was wonderful. Friday, an old friend I haven't seen in 6 years came over. It was awesome. He's still the nice guy he always was, which is cool. We reminisced and filled in the blanks of the last 6 years and just kicked it. Good times.

Saturday night it was like a Heinen's reunion. 5/6 of us worked there. Hahaha. It was such a good time. We laughed, we made fun of each other, we confused each other. It was perfect.

My brother and sister-in-law gave me a coffee mug for my birthday that reads "Smile. Life is good." And every morning, I look at that mug and smile. Because I know it's true. Yes, there are hiccups. Yes, there are some things that weigh heavy on my mind. Yes, there are some things that make me want to cry or make me want to change. But all-in-all, life isn't just good, life is awesome.

I need to maintain this mindset. I need to maintain this sense of peace. Because honestly, it makes me feel good and normal. It makes me feel beautiful and happy. It makes me feel like me again.
