Chilling Today

January 18, 2010 By: Patricia

I’m having a rough time coming up with blog post topic today.

I’m peaceful and relaxed and in a good place. Everything is going okay, although a tiny bit slower than I’d hoped. But it’s all good.

That does not make an exciting blog post.

So I’ll chill today and leave you with this quote:

“The happy people are failures because they are on such good terms with themselves they don’t give a damn.”
—————Agatha Christie (from brainyquote.com)

    I’ll take being happy any day. And not being able to come up with a blog post is not something you should be worried about, when you are having fun being yourself.

    I feel your pain. Engaging, meaningful posts are hard to generate day after day. That’s one of the reasons I went to a MWF schedule. It’s worked out, but still, those good posts can be hard to come by.

    Best Wishes Galen.

    You may be having a rough time with a blog topic, but sounds like your having a great day. When all is said and done, that’s what counts most. Hope the rest of your day go as well.
