I was just reading Roxanne's LJ and thinking on what she said about you can't always chose your level of happiness. I was feeling sad about the post when I heard these birds chirping. A lot of birds. I looked up from the monitor and there were birds flying through the trees, chirping away. There was probably a hundred of them headed south. I had to smile with that message. Roxanne is right we don't always get to chose but we still have to give it a good go to make it better.

I stood and watched those birds fly by. There seem to be no pattern to their flight other than they were headed south. The pattern was survival, headed south for the winter. Then they will return and the circle of life will continue.
