I'm entering my 5th clinical rotation of 7 this Friday and I just got word from my instructor that we are allowed to wear nail polish. My group is full of girls and I know we were all internally giddy to have this privilege....even my sidekick.
I have to admit, I'm a deep thinker. I can even make nail polish have some meaning behind it...
I went to the mall today to shop for clothes with the purpose of buying clothes that I'm only going to wear a couple times. However, I managed to find something that I can wear with jeans and nice slacks. It's a win-win for me. So while I was deeply engrossed in trying to find a few tops, all I could think about it was how much I tend to go after clothes that are black, gray, and neutral in color. I think it's absolutely depressing at times. So my goal is to start wearing things that bring a little more light to my personality.
This goes for nail polish too.... I believe people interpret happiness in many different ways. One aspect of it is that my happy can be purple while for others it's green or pink or blue. My happy could be floating on a river in the middle of nowhere while for others it's shopping in the city. So my purpose now is to define what my happy is and carry a little bit of it with me so that when my day goes completely wrong, it won't appear to be hell or high water, but only a minor obstacle that I face.
Now it's time to shop for colors...where do I begin?? Adore-a-Ball? Eternal Optimist?Mob square?Splash of grenadine?Pansy? Tea and Crumpets? Cute as a button? Turquoise & caicos? School of hard rock?
WAYYY too many to choose from!!

I like the way you think! ;-) It's so true that what makes other people look and feel and seem happy doesn't mean thats what makes you look, feel or seem happy. It's all relative. We should all find our own kind of happy. Great post. I think I'll go paint my nails now. :-D
