One of the things that is happening to me strikes me as very peculiar. I’m finding that I really like life. Oh, not that I was a gloomy Scroogey person, but I wasn’t exactly Suzy Sunshine either. But I find myself walking down the hall grinning like a Cheshire cat at anyone who looks my way. And I find myself going out with my husband and trying new things. And no panic or anxiety attacks! Woot!
So in a spirit of loving life, I figured I’d share my favourite song about that very thing:
I like life Life likes me Life and I fairly fully agree Life is fine Life is good ‘Specially mine, which is just as it should be I like pouring the wine and why not? Life’s a pleasure that I deny not! I like life, Here and now, Life and I made a mutual vow ‘Til I die Life and I We’ll both try to be better somehow And if life were a woman She would be my life. Why? Why? Because I like life! I like life Life likes me I make life a perpetual spree Eating food, drinking wine Thinking who’d like the privilege to dine me I like drinking the drink I’m drinking And I like thinking the thoughts I’m thinking! I like songs I like dance I hear music and I’m in a trance Tra-la-la, Oom-pah-pah Chances are we shall get up and prance Where there’s music and laughter Happiness is rife Why? Why? Because I like life! Drinking life That’s the thing Makes a man want to suddenly sing Sing and dance And perchance Seeing life from a different stance When you learn how to live it Life is free of strife That is why I like life! That’s the secret of living Any man can fly! Why? Because I like life!
Eh, yah freakin’ Pollyanna.
Do we need to get together and sing 80′s song????
Some days are better than others, but I sorta like life too. But I don’t think as much as you do today.
I’ve been feeling the same way lately! Yay for the happy people!
PS. Liz-my favorite movie when I was 8 or 9 was Pollyanna……ahhh the memories!
I know, right??!! That movie is awesome. I love when Cranky McMeaney I’mgonnaDIE hangs the prisms all over the place and they have a total prism-fest!!! It’s awesome.
I really need to break it out for Emma, she’s perfect age!
