So I'm fairly new to this blogging thing, but reading back on what I've written so far I realized something... it's disgustingly cheerful and upbeat. While I admit, this year has been super exciting and overall pretty great, it certainly hasn't been all daffodils and butterflies. What I do know however is that I've gotten pretty good at not letting the going get rough when the going gets tough. By no means does this mean that there aren't sheer moments of sadness, frustration, discouragement and insecurity. I'm twenty-seven years old, newly married, with a big complicated family, friends, a career and independence. Along with all of those wonderful things does not come complete jubilance and bliss 24/7. You take the good, fabulous and wonderful, along with the not so good, grim and delicate. By leaving out some of the not so bright moments in my life, am I cheating myself and painting a picture that is rosier than reality? Is the purpose of blogging to expose it all? Maybe not.Here is where I'm at. Happiness is a choice. Life will always present you with challenges, but you hold your own destiny and choose how these challenges unwrap your life. See, life isn't made of sunshine every day. Instead it is our ability to sort through the gray to find the light. Yes there are tears and yes there are struggles. I choose happiness. I hope you'll join me down this path. Love to all, KTD
