Life makes me happy. The desire to learn and grow makes me happy. My sons make me happy. My three dogs make me happy. My obnoxious bird even makes me happy. The fact that I've turned my life and self will over to a higher power makes me very happy. Its nice to let go, to feel cared for.
I'm afraid for years I was not at all grateful for life and its gifts. I settled for false happiness. I had no goals or desires for my or my children's future. Maybe that's why when I arrived I felt as if I were standing all alone in the middle of a desert. I felt like I blew it. A wasted life,Its over. Its amazing how we cling to life. Some big guy three times your size can attack you and you will fight back. I don't care who you are. Its a natural reaction. Its the same emotionally. Even when we feel there is no hope. If you get to that point and you are able to make it back "wow" life is good. The littlest of things are great. anything is possible.
Walking out of the desert sure is nice. Now through the forest and up the mountain for me. Because its never to late to set goals and be happy!

Nice post! I agree that you didn't blow it, because you are still here and still trying to improve on what you have. That's all we can really ask for, isn't it? Forget your past mistakes and focus on your future.
