Quotes

I love quotes, especially when they appear seemingly from nowhere, at the perfect time, and jump off the page at you. They attach themselves to my brain like an octopus tentacle might.

"Life is a comedy for those who think... and a tragedy for those who feel."

This quote jumped out at me this morning, and it made me appreciate the fact that I'm mostly a Thinker, and I can find humor in anything. Even the dark parts of life.

I just spent a long weekend on a positively lovely vacation with 8 fantastic women. We ate good food, drank cocktails, lounged on the beach, walked, swam, talked, talked, and talked. It was so good for all of our souls.

Upon return to work yesterday, I found out there would be "an announcement" today, we should "stay focused on our projects" and continue "business as usual."

The irony of the timing was indisputable, so I waited till I got home, and then laughed. Life takes such amazing twists and turns, you just never know what's coming. I choose to find humor in that...and "choose" is the key word.

Without laughter, I have nothing.
