It's a new day, it's a new dawn...

Isn't it amazing how suddenly things can change. Where one minute you think you might never smile again, the next something or someone comes into your life and you smile, sometimes inspite of yourself.

Not that the pain or sadness you were experiencing before is forgotten or magically lifted, but sometimes we're remind that our small little pile of needs, wants, and emotions is just that, a small little pile of goo. Despite what our hearts want us to believe we are NOT the centre of the universe. Life as we know it, in the greater scheme of things, will not be cease to exist because we are unhappy. And sometimes things fall in our way to remind us of that.

In the whirlpool of sadness that can catch us and swirl into to the hopeless spin of depression, there is sometimes a branch stretched out to help us that if we just look up we'll see.

This weekend I've had three little branches slow my spin: A little white dog, a hearse and confirmation that a friendship may have survived the pruning off of a relationship.

Thanks to 8Bit, Morticia, and MagicBoy.
