Take a swing at those curve balls.

Pitcher Preparing to Pitch BallIt has been eons since my last post, but as the new year approaches, I wanted to thank you for being a part of the Crankiness Crusher community, whether it be by reading my infrequent posts or by joining me on my Facebook page (where I update daily, by the way!).

I wish you many positive things for the year ahead, but most of all, I want you to enjoy the life you have while continuing to shape it to be exactly what you want. While life will undoubtedly throw you many curve balls, each day offers a chance to take a swing at them, and figure out the best way to finally reach your home plate of happiness.

Keep in mind that happiness isn’t always apparent. Sometimes you have to look for it. Realistically there’s always something good to be thankful for, even if it’s something as small as appreciating a nice e-mail that someone sent you or as meaningful as a hug from a person who truly cares for you. Look for the good in each day, or your “Crankiness Crushers” as I like to call them. They will help bring you out of a funk, lift your spirits, and they’ll help you spread positivity to those grouches out there who really need it!

Set off some fireworks in your own life!

Not an especially colorful shot of fireworks, but it’s one I took last night.

As I reflect on my country’s independence claimed 236 years ago, I’m reminded of the value of having your freedom. I’m not just talking about the freedoms we have in America, but the freedom we have to make decisions in our own lives. Don’t let anyone or anything hold you back from achieving what you want or what you NEED to be happy. Generate some sparks; set off some fireworks to keep things exciting! Then when you sit down and gaze up at the sky, you can smile as you envision all of the bright colors you’ve added to your world. A definite Crankiness Crusher.
