I had a really good day today. It was one of those days that nothing in particular happened, but it still qualified as a good day. It’s currently a little after 12 in the morning and I’m just reflecting on some of the things that made today a good day. One of the best things about today was the amount of peace that I had. Some days are just so incredibly stressful and hard, but today wasn’t one of them. And surprisingly enough, I wasn’t aggravated by my neighbors or family much. You know how they can push my buttons.

I think I’m slowly starting to develop a peaceful personality. I’ve always been a peaceful person, but I’m the kind of person that’s easily effected by outside circumstances. For instance, I can feel at peace and then my noisy neighbors will disrupt that. Or I’ll have to deal with the inbound call center of my phone company and that will annoy me. But not today. Today was a good day! I hope you all had a great day as well! :]

Today is the beginning of a new week. I’m actually looking forward to this week. I hope it will be a great one. This past week was actually pretty good. I didn’t get as much accomplished as I would have liked to, but I did make a lot of progress. Progress is always good. The worst thing about last week is that i broke my fast. I was only able to fast a few days. I don’t think I was mentally prepared to do it and I failed. That usually happens to me when I fast without preparing myself first.

Most people probably think fasting is as simple as not eating, but that definitely isn’t the case. My longest fast was for ten days last year and it took a lot of focus, determination, and meditation. Trust me, Fastin is not easy for most people. Especially when you live in a home where food is always being cooked. I’m not sure when I’ll trying fasting again, but I know one thing, I’ll be more prepared next time.

So far, this has been a great Summer!!! The weather has been incredible. Most days I can even get away with having no air on at all. I just open the window and I’m fine. I love it! It’s like there’s an air conditioner outside. Especially at night. It’s actually enjoyable to be outside in July. Who knew! If I had a car with a drop-top I would definitely be on the highway cruising around. When I was younger I used to love to ride on the highway when it was really windy because the wind would always take my breath away. As a child that was fun for some reason.

Now that I’m an adult, I would just like to feel the wind on my skin and blowing through my hair. That’s the best feeling! Maybe I’m odd. Most people I know have wind deflectors on their cars and they try to avoid the heavy winds. I guess those come in handy as well. When I’m all dressed up and my hair is looking fancy, the wind is my enemy!

I just came in my room for the night. I was spending some time with my mom which was really fun. I have the best mom in the world. I know *you* might disagree, but my mom is pretty awesome. We have so much fun together. I love that as I get older our relationship just gets even more special. Cool stuff!! I’m not really sure what I’m going to do for the rest of the night but since it’s not even 9pm I’m sure I wont be going to sleep anytime soon.

My mother on the other hand is already asleep. She’s an early bird. We have so much in common but that’s definitely one thing that’s opposite about us. Just thinking about my mom makes me want to do something special for her. I would love to get her some new earrings. That’s the only jewelry that she wears. It would be nice to get her some kind of heart pendant jewelry to express my love, but oddly enough I think she’d like the earrings more. Strange woman!
