Two Outlooks

As the day went by, it got better and better. Less worries on my mind. Less stress on my mind. More room for the intake of relaxation.

I walked in the rain for a two good hours. I've never noticed the simple beauties. The fog that covers the rivers, the geese that flew in circles, the rain droplets that barely hung upon the trees, and how great the water felt running down my face. It allowed me to open up and release all that was inside building up. As I walked, I looked at the sky and just started to laugh. Laugh for what reason, I do not know. I just...laughed. Laughed long and hard. It felt great, though I can only imagine what a passerby might have thought, driving by and seeing a soaked teenager boy laughing at the sky.

I thought and thought. I even made up a grand idea for a short story or a poem. Maybe I will put it on paper one day. Who knows?

I talked to him today, and his words made me so happy. His reassurance. Just to know that he cares that much, and thinks about me in such a way - nothing could have made me happier. I was so happy, I cared not about what happened the rest of the day. I looked decent, but not my best. But that was alright, I was happy.




Now, I head off to bed with only one thought running through my head.


Is the cup half empty, is the cup half full?
