A Hero..

There are days where you wake up, and something clicks right. We often hear about days that are just horrible, waking up on the wrong side of the bed, getting out on the wrong foot, and things just going downhill from there. But not today; today’s a day that anything could happen. You got your makeup on just right, each strand of hair is behaving and someone told you as soon as they saw you that you lost weight. And then a song on your radio, iPod, Blackberry, MP3 player—whatever it is you listen on—comes on, and it just pretty much describes your ability to change the day to make it yours. You have the ability to have this day go GREAT. You feel in command, and let’s be honest here: you feel at least a little bit pretty. On occasion, I don’t usually feel pretty because I’m not really that pretty. But today, I feel like something good’s going to happen. It’s a great combination, looking good and feeling good. That means your day is just meant to be awesome. And it’s not an, ‘I’m feeling lucky’ day. It’s an, ‘I’m feeling inspired’ day. I’ve been listening to a song that says, “I’ll meet a hero, and we’ll dance in the morning light”, and you know what? I’m not looking for a guy who is a sappy romantic like that. I’m looking for someone who makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside every day, not just one day, occasionally, like today. But in the meantime, I’ll feel good about myself today—I’ll feel pretty, and I’ll be awesome at work and I’ll try to make this day last, because I might not get another shot at this feeling again in a long time. Yet, like the song says, “I need a hero.”






I'll meet a hero, and then we'll dance 'till the morning light
Dreaming, he'll lead me
Held tight, tonight's the night.--Ella Mae Bowen
