I am trying.

I am trying to be upbeat and see the bright side
I really am.

But could you give me just a small break...

{and at the same time I am writing this, I am aware
Of all the good in my life...
I am healthy, my husband loves me,
I have two healthy happy sweet funny kind understanding kids...
I have a job I love, safety and security and a home....
I am not unaware...I am thankful and appreciative...}

{this post no longer
feels like it needs to be written.
I think I have been given many breaks....
Low on money, short of Internet and dead car batteries
no longer seem to be important enough to negotiate about
when I consider all that I do have...}

Never mind....I take it back...life is good.
