So I went for my chiropractic visit today and it went well. My back is still a mess, but is some better than it was at first.
Then I went into the pet store to buy some millet sprays for my parakeet. They had cockatiels for sale. I wouldn't even look in that direction, but I heard one make a sound like my Peeper used to and when I got back to the car, I bawled. I asked my Mom if I was going to ever stop having the weepies over my little baby and she said "no", b/c he put a stamp on your heart that will never go away. You may not get the weepies as often, but they'll come around from time to time. She's right. But it's worth it b/c I don't want to forget my Peeper, even if I cry for years to come.
Anyhow, my day's had its ups and downs. I've been feeling a bit blue and anxy, even before the bad back thing, but I'll get past it. I think of all the folks that are having their problems and heartaches and I wish i could give them all a hug and say that it'll be okay...we all want "it" to be okay, whatever our particular "it" may be. Sometimes you can't help but get jealous of the folks you see walking around, laughing it up, and seeming to have not a care in the world. Yet, how many of them are really as happy-go-lucky as they may seem? And you know that they'll have their turn to cry soon enough...sad. Despite it all, we go on and we love life, even with all its troubles and such. Life is a gift. That is why we all fight so hard, no matter what comes. And if you have someone that's stamped your heart with love, be glad. Even if it's just a little bird or a friend or a family member. Love and life go hand-in-hand.
