Mood = Happy :)

We all end up searching for the same things in life (with the obvious exceptions to every rule)

We all want that happy ending. Some people want the easy road to that ending, and others want to face and overcome challenges before getting there. Either way, when you reach that last step or when you're even taking your last breathe of life, everyone wants that happy ending.  This is a relative concept that is based on our subjective experiences. So, even those who are depressed and feel like they don't deserve a happy ending will still long for that content feeling that leaves no negative aftertaste.

No matter how many people we ask, we all seek confirmation. We turn rocks upside down just to find one person that agrees with us. That tells us that what we want to do is worth trying and that what we are doing is right. So, what it all really comes down to, is digging deep and really finding out what you really want and giving yourself the confirmation you need and yearn for. It's about creating that self confidence so you don't necessarily have to depend on an outside sources of confirmation. Be strong, know who you are and take risks. We're only human, and we only have one life. So make mistakes, learn from them and move on.

Along with confirmation, everyone wants acceptance. And this can be found through love, support and friendship. These ideals are all intertwined with trust, loyalty and honesty to form the desired positive reinforcements in life. Even the darkest of hearts needs someone beside them. Even the dishonest wants honesty. Even the wrong doers have a conscience. What they believe may not be socially accepted or politically correct, but it may be right in their own minds and hearts. Acceptance is not limited to those of certain race, age or wealth. We all want to be accepted by someone.

However you look at it, you can either walk down the safe road and wait for what the future may hold or you can take that risk and pave your own future. Truth be told, time will keep ticking and life will keep going, but the future will always remain unknown.



So why am I so happy? Just a few days ago, I got my new MacBook Pro!! And to make things even more exciting, I just got an "acceptance" update on my replacement authorization form. What does this mean? There was an NVIDIA GPU chip problem that lead to a recall. Well, in 2007 I purchased my HP Pavillion tx1000z (don't judge for my terrible purchase) which falls in their criteria range to be approved for a computer replacement. So basically, my HP that doesn't even work anymore will be replaced with a new laptop! Although it's not top of the line, something is better than nothing!!!
