It Always Amazes Me...

So many amazing things happen to me. Sometimes, when I am drafting an angry response to an unsavory political article I've just read, the power goes out.

Hhhhmmmm. Guess I wasn't supposed to say that. OK.

Sometimes when I'm drafting a blog post, I hit one key and the entire thing disappears. 

Hhhhmmmm. Yep. Wasn't supposed to keep working on that one....
maybe I shouldn't talk about that.

Sometimes when I'm sharing something possibly incendiary on Facebook...BOOP! My computer locks up.

Hhhhmmmm. Charlotte, that might have been too contentious to post.
No need to incite an argument or polarize your friends. 

Yes, the power goes out regularly here...well, not really, but enough so that it's not a surprise or big deal when it does go out. My American formatted computer does some fun things when interfacing with certain programs or providers. I'm sure there are other reasons for my occasional losses...

But what has constantly amazed me is that whatever is lost, whatever disappears, or whatever I don't get to finish at the time is never something of serious importance. I never feel the sting of loss after it happens. 

I'm glad to know that it's not worth getting worked up over the little things. 

I am happy to stay in a state of constant amazement that even when something disappears, something more important is saved. 

Maybe it's my face.
