Day 18

So I decided a while back that it would be a good idea to change my life, so I did. And it has been working out for the best. Really. It is amazing to be happy in one's life and have no complaints. Ok, really, there are still complaints, but not as many as there used to be, and generally are now on sillier topics than they used to be.

Some would say that what I chose to do was courageous. I don't know what that means. It is insane to me to think that it is easier to stay miserable than it is to try something new. Shouldn't it be harder to stay (knowingly) miserable rather than take a tiny step to try and not be miserable? Of course there is always going to be the possibility of failure. The idea that the grass will always be greener across the next fence, so you may as well stay put and deal with the misery you know rather than the misery that may occur that you don't know. But that just sounds silly, doesn't it? Doesn't that sound a bit glass-half-empty? And shouldn't you want to be glass-half-full?

I don't know. I don't know that I make much sense. I'm not really trying to make sense, though. I'm trying to just state what I think here, for whomever goes here to read.
