Every day can't be the best day. Things pop up. You can end up getting in a fight with your family. You can have a bad time with a significant other. Your bird can die.
A lot of things happen that can "ruin" your day. Or if not that, even just put a damper on it. And it sucks. A lot. It's not fair. Even when you're on an upswing in moods and things are finally looking up for you, something can happen that makes you not feel the happiness that you should.
Today was spent just like the past few. Sitting in the ac with my girlfriend, watching movies and making sure everything goes well. She even got a car, which is basically amazing. It's been a while since I've seen her smile so much. But in the midst of all of this sunshine, I find myself feeling kind of cloudy. There's conflict at home, conflict in my wallet, and a bit of background buzzing that's making it hard to smile tonight.
It happens I guess. If it happens to you, walk outside. Listen to the wind, try to find a cloud, but just look at how beautiful things are. Kiss your girlfriend or boyfriend, smile at a stranger, and send some uplifting text messages. Don't let clouds take over your life.
Thanks.
Tyler.

A gentle shove or a monumental push?
Have you ever felt pushed? Maybe by your parents, your friends, your girlfriend? Or maybe by some unseen, unknowable force?
So, I've had a song stuck in my head. Part of the chorus is "Sometimes it comes with a shove, when you fall in love."
Why do we fall in love? What causes it? I contemplate these things late at night I guess. I've been dating this girl for just over a month. I can safely say I'm in love with her, but it's odd. Even leading up to us dating, we said no way. It would never happen.
What caused that shove? I've found her pretty attractive for a long time. I mean, she's really easy to look at. But that's not a big deal to me. She'd always seemed intelligent and easy to get along with, but I didn't want the relationship.
And now I'm one of the happiest guys in the world.
Sometimes, people are brought into your life. Against your will maybe, but there nonetheless. They come in for a reason, and there's no fighting it. Some call it fate, some god, some even say karma. But the fact is that they are there.
Embrace these people. You'll learn. Life is all about learning. You might even find a huge deep well of happiness, if you're lucky like me.
Thanks,
Tyler,
