For anyone that reads this blog or talks to me on a regular basis, one thing is clear... I very much love Lisa. We have so much fun together doing everything that we can think of under the sun. On the forth of July she woke up early, came and supported me through the early morning race, and then we spent the rest of the day at parades, fireworks, concerts, and with family. We have so much fun together.
Lisa has a collection of these little wooden figurines that she buys in Mexico and while we were in
Tiajunana on our last little trip to California, she walked into her favorite store and picked up a few treasures and this was one of them. She walked out and sat on my lap with a big grin from ear to ear and unfortunately I was too much of an "
imbecil"(it isn't spelled wrong, it is a
Spanish word) to pay attention to the situation and voiced some frustrations instead of focusing on her and being happy. Well we got up and started walking back to the border and like the saint that she is, she just forgave me for acting how I did, looked past the situation, put back on her million dollar, and made me feel like the luckiest man in town. Well just a few days ago, which was about two weeks after our trip, I was in her room and she shows me the figurine in the above picture and says, "I bought it for us when we were in Mexico". Moral of the
story, be appreciative for what you have and count your blessings for the people that you have in your life. Make the best out of the situations that you are dealt with, look on the bright side of things, and love the people that love you and never let them go. Never be mad or upset when you are feeling jealous because you never know what great surprise you are going to miss out on. Today you may be sitting in a camping chair waving a flag and kissing someone on the cheek but pretty soon you'll be the little old skeletons sitting on the bench. I know that I am going to make sure that when I am the old skeleton sitting on the bench that the red heart is well intact and that my arm is still around my favorite.
