Just keep smiling

If it's not one thing, it's another.  Life and living are relentless.

The pace seems to increase with age.

Test after test makes it impossible not to discover what I think I believe and what I really believe.

I would rather not have the tests, but with them also comes the proof that troubles can be separated from the good times by living in the moment, because in this moment life is actually okay.

The future is seldom as bad as I fear it may be, but if I ponder it now it won't matter because I will still do all the suffering as if it is.

My mantra must continue to be:  In this moment life is good.  In this moment I can smile.
