What to write about?

Aww - first attempt at a real post and the browser crashed, taking my words with it!! Welcome to the world of technology...

I was showering late last night (after the Moto GP - Caser Stoner won, yay!), thinking about the day and what I had done. Thoughts got to Blogging, and what I could possibly get out of it, or what good it would do to write about stuff that makes my world just a little happier.

Can I possibly write about things that make me happy all the time??

I'll digress for a moment. I checked out the possibility of a private Blog just yesterday so I could have a page full of interesting things to show my parents, who live interstate. They are missing out on the little things that happen to my kids and family on a day to day basis and I thought it would be cool to share it with them. I have taken up photography recently and posting pictures of the things that happen in and around our family might bring them closer into our little world.

Back to the happiness question, yeah - sometimes I get down or upset, or even question who I am and where I belong in this world. The kids give me joy but sometimes they drive me mental. Sometimes I feel sad for the world or people in the news, or friends going through a hard time. Sometimes I deal with people who just don't get it!! Sometimes I just can't get my act together and waste time, and time is oh so precious.

Propagated rose from my old home - first ever bud

In light of all this, I think it is wise to stop and smell the roses. I have a feeling that expressing my thoughts could have a healing, cathartic effect on me - as long as I finish my thoughts with a positive experience; whether it's a lesson learned or just a sunset I've passed along the way.

If you want to read my ramblings, go ahead! Feel free to comment, or even express how you feel and tell me of the roses you stopped to smell along the way...

What makes your heart sing?
