New week, new work assignments, new weather, new a ton of things.
Last night after getting home from school and a long day at work, I get home to a house full of good vibes and joy, I really can’t ask for more.
I was just done telling my wife how great I felt being home with her and the kids and how fortunate and blessed I am for having her and my kids there with me when there is a knock on the door at an odd time of the night. I don’t want to get into too much detail but let’s just say it’s wasn’t a very good visit. Visit very long but it wasn’t favorable news either, and my wife was mildly upset about it because it affects all of us in a negative way in the
long run. Five minutes go by and I sat down at the dinner table after my wife served dinner for me, and I looked at her and I asked her how she felt, to which she replied, "Ok" (in a soft "I don’t know what to say" voice) and I told her "Don’t you feel like this even just tried to take our happiness away?" It was at that very moment when I realized how this was all a trap. Our happiness had been stolen at that very moment, but this post isn’t about how our happiness was stolen in an instant, it’s about how my wife and I realized how we can make that drastic change and decision to not allow things to rob us from our great moments. We then smiled at each other and without words we knew we had flipped that switch of negativity OFF. It was almost surreal on how the same way our joy was pulverized by some unfortunate event, we chose to gain that back and return to that stage of happiness we were in to begin with. I have to say, that has been one of our greatest moments in our relationship.
I have to say I’m very proud of the great progress my wife and I have made throughout time. It was great to see how we both worked together to maintain the harmony and joy. I encourage everyone to not allow great thing come to an end over a bad situation. You can always choose to make things better.
