Park walk...


‘Not every day is a walk in the park’
-CN

I’m pretty sure all of you can relate to this in one way or another. No matter how optimistic you are (or try to be) there are some days that are just…not the best.

It’s funny, if you come to think of it. Count the number of people you know who engage is various activities to try and keep an air of optimism in their lives. Some go to the theater, some play sports, others travel, and some even read books (very many books) in search of that spark that will light their souls and keep it that way for the longest time.

Well, got news for you, although those things might help you feel as your life is like a walk in the park they won’t make it a walk in the park. What do people mean when they say life can be or not a walk in the park? There are many things to do, and many things to see. While walking in the park you will find playgrounds, children with their mascots, you find your friends there, romantic couples, trees, nature beauty…but you will also find the occasional bum, a thief, a dog leaving a little ‘surprise’ behind, and sometimes even trash in the ground…
Anyways, in our search for optimism and ultimate happiness we want our walk in the park to be the best experience ever, and we long for it.

So, what can you do to live that way? Well, in order to live like you’re walking in the park you have to just do that, you have to LIVE THAT WAY.

Lesson learn: No matter what, I will always live walking in my park
