For the first time in a very long time, I awoke this morning to an unexpected realization:
I have no reason to be unhappy.
As I drove home from lunch on this beautiful sunny day... I thought about life.
To any who may be in a similar situation:
Don't be afraid to let yourself be happy.
For so long I've found, or created, reasons to be upset...to worry...to be frusterated or depressed...
To the point that I'm almost afraid to be happy...I suppose psychologically it makes sense...based on my past, if I'm happy now, everything is going to come crashing down around me...right?
Not anymore. My perception now creates my reality...and God Damnit, I love life.

Thanks for that very well needed "smack in the face"

I've been trying to fight off depression and misery for the past few days, and it's easier to do so when you realize... there ARE reasons to be happy.

Seems the only time I ever really saw you, was when I was giving you your coors light.

SL, thats beautiful. i too know that i have no reason to be unhappy, but for some reason its not working. these past 2 weeks i have been incredibly happy, but for no reason, a terrible sadness has set in and wont leave me. i'm trying my best to keep it away, especially since i still cant figure out why its happening, but it just keeps creeping up on me every night

^If no one cares when you're unhappy.. maybe you should be hanging about other people? Just a thought.

Hang in there spedlie! I'll be down in less than a month to slap some sense into you.
Trust me, your life sucks.

Are you sure he isn't going to say the same to you, in his offhanded way?

Does anyone miss the old Spedly?
You know, the pathetic scrawny kid who everyone made fun of, yet still liked...
hmm...
maybe its just me.
 
If Spedly's confident, happy and getting laid who am I gonna bitch-slap in a good-natured and friendly way?
I might as well just go stick my head in a 350-degree oven for 20 minutes or until my nugget is golden brown.
