perspective.

Today's blog serves as a sort of pep-talk to myself. Life is all about perspective. My shoulders are carrying their fair share of weight right now. As we all know: when it rains, it pours. I refuse to let that put me in a funk. I refuse to let it put my husband in a funk. We have too much good going on to focus on the bad. I get to come home to my soul mate everyday. We are alive. We both have jobs.We are both, for the most part, healthy. If you remind yourself that life isn't so bad it is a lot eaiser to be a positive person. So many people don't have the things that are taken for granted on a daily basis. We will take life's lemons and make the best damn lemonade ever.

Sunday Sounds

Black Sun- Death Cab for Cutie
Death Cab makes my heart flutter at 29 just the same as when I was 17. le sigh. 

This was the first song I heard from Frou Frou. I was in love. [I am still in love] To this day I am still bummed that this was a fling in music and not a lasting duo.

I suppose I am in a Frou Frou kinda mood today. I will forever see a Garden State montage in my head when I hear this. 

Fast forward a few years and Imogen heap has broken from Frou Frou and given us this masterpiece. To take a phrase from E, 'gave me the feels'. 

I leave you with Jared Leto live. Because even if you don't want to like this band, you do.
