This week started off on a bit of a downer. Got told something I didn’t want to hear, and it kind of put me in a funk for most of the week. Yes, and I know what you’re thinking, you shouldn’t allow anything to get you down or get the best of you. The truth of the matter is this, I have struggled with health problems since I was 7 years old, therefore my health has always played a major role with the on goings of my life. Would I ever allow my health problems to hinder me or define me, NO never that. However, it does slow me down with the productivity with all that I’m trying to do and be whilst I’m still here on Earth. But would I change any of it, well that answer is easy because it would always be NO. All of which I go through, what I’m still going through, is the reason I am who I am today. Now, I’m not going to ‘toot my own horn’ or anything…lol…but I am pretty awesome! No, but seriously, I won’t get into who I am and what I do because you can read all about that when my book is published. All I can say is this, my life is mine, therefore I will cherish every moment of it. Even when it gets rough, I will always manage to smile; especially when I’m in a funk!
By midweek, I had done an injury to myself; I accidentally hit my head on the wall. Seriously, I thought I had a concussion; I was scared to fall asleep that night. Again this is just Adrianna being Adrianna, I’m known for my clumsy ways, falling up and falling down; stairs, buses, just the floor in general, bumping into things; walls, doors, windows, etc., getting hooked on things; and I mean this literally, having my clothing getting hooked onto things, hitting my head on random objects; the wall being one of them, spillages of all things; especially those of harsh pigments like ketchup, curry, juices, etc. So you can probably get my gist, and all of my ‘Adrianna’ moments are always quite humorous. I am a firm believer that if you can laugh at yourself before anyone else does, then your feelings won’t be hurt and you won’t feel so shamed; I’m just saying!
Then the weekend arrived, and all was right in the world of Adrianna. Everything that had happened earlier in the week seemed like a distant memory. I embraced who I am and went on an ‘Art Trail’ in and around the borough where I live. It was an amazing experience; the weather was great, I learnt new skills, I met new and extremely talented individuals and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I’ve always been able to find joy in the simplest of things, so I was totally in my element.
So overall, my week was absolute perfection and do you want to know why, because of this:
‘’You have got to take the good with bad, smile with the sad, love what you have got, and remember what you had.’’
These are just my thoughts and my thoughts alone.
Take Care and Much Love….
Adrianna xx
That’s right! Always manage to smile!!!!!!
As you quoted, ‘’You have got to take the good with bad, smile with the sad, love what you have got, and remember what you had.’’
