I think the best advice I've ever been given is 'Life goes on'. Regardless of what life throws at you, the sun still rises in the east and sets in the west. Of course it never seems that way when you're confronted with another obstacle but that's how life tries to get at you. You don't look past it, instead you take one look at what's collapsed in front of you and panic. Life will never go the way you plan it - no, it's up to God to shape things and only He knows how things will go. So you can say things like "we'll be getting married this year" but that's only if it fits in with His plan. The expression 'God willing' had to come from somewhere.
I don't know anyone who suffers from Seasonal Adjustment Disorder but I always feel crap at this time of year. OK the nights are drawing out but there's nothing to look forward to. We normally get crappy weather in febuary and march and at least when the summer ended a few months ago we had Christmas to look forward to but now - nothing. Summer 2007 is so far away, that's not a nice thought. I would have said my birthday is something to look forward to but it means little to me now. I'd rather have more fun on Alyssa's birthday in July. She's started to work out she gets presents at Christmas AND her birthday, until recently whenever an advert for a toy would come on, she'd ask if she could have it for Christmas - now she's asking for things for her birthday. She's starting to get really headstrong and it would be too easy to let her get her own way but as soon as I give in, she'd realise she's in charge and her for own good, that's not what I want. She's got my wrapped around her little finger but there's no way I'm letting her know.
