I've grown addicted to watching Mary Tyler Moore sitcoms I previously recorded. It grounds me a little in what I would describe as a feeling of "no direction". It makes me feel like there's a chance for me to make something of myself...that it's not too late or I'm not too old. It's funny, the older I get, the harder it is to see myself going back to school. That part of my brain is paralyzed with fear of the unknown. It's something that I'll have to overcome as I do plan on going back to school in a couple of years (once the debts are paid...ugh).
I also bought the 4th season of Kate & Allie...remember them? Two divorcee's and their kids move in together to share the cost of living and it shows how they make it in life with career changes, unemployment, life decisions. I couldn't relate to it when I was younger (except with the teenagers probs in the shows), but I can certainly relate to them now. It's like watching it for the first time.
Did a part of my brain switch on to slow me down in life and make me relish every part of it? Because I notice myself paying more attention to the little things in life I used to rush past. With that said, let us take the time to hear the leaves rustling or see the clouds moving by or do something that we will feel good about at some point in our lives.

Keep smilin'
