I have spent the last few weeks in a perpetual cycle of all things "Not Being Enough". It is exhausting mentally, especially emotionally, and sometimes physically.
As I ready myself to prepare our taxes, I estimate that our tax return just "won't be enough" to cover all these other expenses that keep popping up like pop-ups on an internet browser.
My little side business "just isn't enough" to cover more expenses incurred with my daughter's healthcare. As I manage the family's budget, it is more than evident that our current status "just won't be enough" to cover anything. So now, after giving everything I have of myself to the family, I resign myself to the working world again. I'm sure the adventures of my job search will inspire another post.
After many weeks of my daughter doing (what I thought was) better, the doctor informs me her progress "just isn't enough" to be considered adequate.
And for the proverbial cherry on top, after all those miles of running and working out, the scale tells me the weight lost "just isn't enough", either. But those are my standards. I'm at least happy that I'm healthy again, and certainly not overweight.
So what happens when you give every last ounce of all you have, just to not be "Enough"? Then again, will it ever be?
Of course, the Patriots losing the SuperBowl didn't help, but I'm happy it had nothing to do with me (at least).
Where we all need to at least start with a smile to make the day better. If you can smile, that's good; if you can giggle, that's great; and if you can laugh, then you're definitely awesome!
Joke-of-the-day! Start your day off laughing...or at least snickering.
Just in time for tax season...
A businessman on his deathbed called his friend and said, "Bill, I want you to promise me that when I die you will have my remains cremated."
"And what," his friend asked, "do you want me to do with your ashes?"
The businessman said, "Just put them in an envelope and mail them to the Internal Revenue Service and write on the envelope, 'Now you have everything.'"
