“Learn to like what doesn't cost much.
Learn to like reading, conversation, music.
Learn to like plain food, plain service, plain cooking.
Learn to like fields, trees, brooks, hiking, rowing, climbing hills.
Learn to like people, even though some of them may be different...different from you.
Learn to like to work and enjoy the satisfaction doing your job as well as it can be done.
Learn to like the song of birds, the companionship of dogs.
Learn to like gardening, puttering around the house, and fixing things.
Learn to like the sunrise and sunset, the beating of rain on the roof and windows, and the gentle fall of snow on a winter day.
Learn to keep your wants simple and refuse to be controlled by the likes and dislikes of others.”

Just don't think about it.

Two of my best friends are gone.
I just don't think about it.
My Brother doesn't come home for another 6 months. But I need him.
I just don't think about it.
School starts in a week.
I just don't think about it.
I probably have to babysit this weekend.
I just don't think about it.
Death Cab for Cutie tonight.
Oh wait. I DO think about it.

Yes ma'am. That's the only exciting thing happening in my life right now.
There might be another, if Ash and Lyss decide to come up for the weekend.
You know, for a big sleepover and stuff.
If it's going to happen,
then I'll definitely think about it. All the time.
