Light of Day

New Year's Day Sunrise Doubled
I was mourning the loss of the entire weekend this morning as I walked the mile to my office (I typically get off the train early so I can take a walk each day, regardless how busy work is) when I realized my attitude is under my control, no one else's. Yes, I battle wintertime blues, and yes, I've been buried with too much stress and too many deadlines lately. But I am the captain of my own ship, and I have the power to smile, even when the world seems as though it's trying to break me.

I can smile. I will smile. And that's what it takes.

Attitude. It's all about attitude.

seldom heard, well must you keep your secrets
locked inside, hidden deep from view?
