They say most of us have a video of our life playing in the back of our heads.

I think I used to have one of those, but it became evident, early on, that my life would not be following the script.

Some things turned out better than I expected.

Others were a disappointment.

And some were just a sort of numbing surprise.

But life is life. It has a way of wearing you down, lifting you up, carrying you along and you can either learn to swim with the current, become a little bit creative, or drown in the chaos.

I recommend the creative approach. Make lemonade out of lemons, pies out of mud, and take time to smell the roses, but no matter what else you do, just keep going, because you never know what's going to be next.

Toss the video, it's probably an old VHS tape anyway.
