Tales From Away-Not Just A Pretty Face~
As my good friend and former coworker used to say. Some days we were just pretty faces and I think every woman/person has one of those days.<br /> <br /> Did you ever have one of those days where everything you touched or held just fell out of your hands or dropped to the floor? It's like you are jinxed that day or something, and you are better off to sleep the rest of the day away and wake up anew the next morning. But you do not, because you cannot, there is just too much STUFF to do.<br /> <br /> We all have bad days, some more than most, but we do all have them. Another most helpful quote from my very good friend and former co worker is, it is how we deal or react to not so good situations that matters. We can hide our head in the sand or we can push through and face it head on.<br /> <br /> I really like this one stanza from Daniel Powders song Bad Day:<br /> <br /> Sometimes the system goes on the blink<br /> And the whole thing turns out wrong<br /> You might not make it back and you know<br /> That you could be well, oh, that strong<br /> <br /> Sometimes things beyond our control go wrong; there may be nothing we can do to fix it other than to be strong, hang on and try to be more than just a pretty face.<br /> <br /> Take care (& appreciate the bad days as well) and all the best~Celeste<br /> <br /> www.talesfromaway.com Submitted By: Alicia "Celeste" Loughrey
