Eternal Cheerleader
It's been a year since I started blogging. In hindsight, it doesn't seem like it's been that long. Like the last five or ten years, time seems to be moving at a faster rate, leaving me fumbling with my dreams and trying to keep up. Through it all, I've managed to maintain my typical demeanor, and after reading the earlier posts on my blog I've come to the conclusion that I am and always will be a cheerleader.
When the sun comes out, I can't help but tell the world about it. It's the same impulse that makes me jump for joy when I see something in the store I love or taste something magnificent or experience a wonderful moment. Everyone simply has to know how excited I am. Deep down I suppose I'm attempting to make everyone feel the same joy I feel. It's simply unfair to keep it to myself!
Surprisingly, I am very much a morning person. It's a total contradiction to the girl I was in school when I couldn't get out of bed in the mornings. But I'd rather be up early with the sun and the birds, out and about when the world starts moving so I don't miss anything. There's something about being up before the world has begun, when the first light of the morning hits the horizon in that brilliant shade of deep aqua, and for a brief moment makes the stars shine brighter than should be possible. How does something that far away look so incredibly bright?
Hurray for stars, and hurray for sunrises and sunsets! Hurray for bright clothes and fabulous food (things that make you go 'Mmm') and moments that make you smile. In the midst of a world where so many things can and do go wrong, I'm thankful for the happy times and I'll continue to rave about them, pom pons at the ready.
