Living Life = Learning

I’ve been on a mini vacation the last lil bit, hence the lack of blogage. It was nice to have a few days off, spend some time with mommy and get out with some friends here and there as well. I haven’t spent enough time with the people I care about lately, and its something I tried to address this weekend.

I enjoy being “home”, I love being able to kiss my mother everyday and tell her that I love her. All the small things, like the genuine and absolute joy it gives me, to make her smile. You know, all the things you “miss”…but never really elaborate on.

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “you never stop learning”…and its true. Everyone knows this, I think the saying should be changed to “acknowledge that you never stop learning”, because its one thing to learn something new, another to rationalize that you have. Its about breaking patterns really, instead of just missing my mom…to realize WHY I miss her instead of just leaving it to generalizations.

Quick story. On my drive into town I’m almost always picking up a Timmies half way. All this winter I have been spilling coffee on the trim of the bottom of my jacket, where it just happens to be WHITE. I can’t tell you how many times I have spilled java on this jacket! Recently I have tucked the trim under my jacket when I get the oh so sweet JAVA BEAN…today when I was driving in, I spilled my coffee AGAIN! Nothing to worry though, because this time…it landed on the bottom of my jacket…and not the white trim underneath.

I win, today…coffee is still kicking my ass 1oo to 1 LoL. The point being, I learned….and acknowledged when I did.
