This is a continuation of my 1000 Things I Am Thankful For challenge that I started on November 1st. If you were lucky enough to miss my earlier entries, please feel free to review them in my timeline. I took several days off in a row, so I am crazy behind. I think today will be a good day to work out the multiple shorter posts versus one gigantic one. Youre welcome. 201. Movies that make me sad 202. Movies that make me angry 203. Movies that make me think 204. Movies where I dont have to think Usually involving defecation/urination and some dude getting hit in the genitals. Plot? What plot? Just unplug the noodle and let the laughing come. 205. Music that makes me sad 206. Music that makes me angry 207. Music that makes me think 208. Music where I dont have to think Hi, my name is Larry and I like Toxic by Britney Spears. 209. Books that make me sad 210. Books that make me angry 211. Books that make me think 212. Books where I dont have to think I know, right? Im talking about books that are there to pass the time, especially those where you know what is going to happen - think Stephen King or John Grisham. 213. Feeling proud of my friends and family You guys are alright, thanks for letting me join you. 214. Feeling inspired by my friends and family You guys are doing good things, I want to be more like you. 215. For wanting to feel things, even if its sad or angry Life is hard and I know that sometimes it feels like a struggle to just make it through the day. I know, for me, that sometimes the easiest way to make it through the day is to emotionally detach from the things going on around me and just get things done. That might work for me in the short term, but I dont like the notion of just existing, moving the widgets and surviving to do it all again like some automaton. Sometimes I find that I need a little reminder that there is more going on outside myself and that my contribution is not isolated to the vocation that pays the bills. Sometimes I need to be reminded that Im alive and I want to be; on the occasions were I dont want to be, I like to be reminded that Im wrong. Ive found that the times that are darkest for me arent the times when I am sad or angry, theyre the times where I feel numb. Movies, music, books and people that force me to feel kind of prime my pump when Im hiding inside myself.
