“Life is like walking a dog. Sometimes you’re the dog, sometimes you’re the fire hydrant.”
—Stephanie Walters
This week, I definitely started off as the fire hydrant. Work was extra stressful, my check engine light came on, I got an EZ tag toll violation in the mail, my dog puked on my rug, and my laptop crashed. At first, all I was thinking was what else go wrong?
I was determined to keep a positive attitude though and thought that after all of that, things had to start looking up. It couldn’t get much worse, right?
By the end of the week, I was definitely the dog! That positive attitude turned out to really work! My check engine light went off, I found $20 on the ground, I went on date with a really great guy, I had two great hair days in a row, and my dog died so I never have to worry about throw up on the rug again. I’M JUST KIDDING ABOUT THE LAST ONE! THAT WOULD BE DEVASTATING! Anyone who knows me knows I love my dog the most out of everyone on the planet (even my parents and they gave me life – sorry mom and dad!).
Anyways, the moral of the story is to always keep a positive attitude. You may never know what is coming right after you walk past the fire hydrant. There maybe something really great on the horizon. The end.
