Ode to a good [insert time frame here]

I would be remiss if I didn't honor the good [insert time frame here].

After all, many people don't think they "should" have a good day, for this or that reason.

It's not weird. It's just a question, feeling, wonder. So, I write:

Maybe it IS a good day

Or, a great week

Or, hell... an amazing year.

It's your timeframe of good--

There is no right or wrong amount of good in this ode. 

You do you. 

Give yourself permission to have a good [moment, minute, hour, day, week, month, year]. 

Have the audacity to have a good day.

It doesn't matter what's going on around you

or in the world

or wherever.

Maybe it's overwhelmingly good

unbearably giddy or

just plain wonderful. 

You know what?

Own that good day. 

Have that good day. 

OWN.THAT.BITCH.

Let society judge you 

There is no reason not to have a good day.

It IS wonderful 

and "normal" (what that is)...

and healthy...

and acceptable to have a good [moment, hour, day, month, year]..

As a therapist, I ask people why they think it is not okay to feel a good for a [moment, hour, day or week].

What on Earth could be bad about good?

Good [timeframes] deserve an ode, too.

Why the hell not celebrate a good [timeframe]?

Be a taco.

Almost everyone loves tacos.

They are colorful and tasty and varied.

They can be crunchy or soft

You can carry them with you

You can share them.

No one questions tacos. 

Well, as much as you can question a taco.

Damn, they are fabulous

And so are you. 

Having a good [timeframe] works for me. 

Smile, laugh, giggle, dance.

That good time may be fleeting so enjoy it.

I am a HUGE fan of having a good [moment, minute, hour, day, week, month, year]

when it swoops upon me

I embrace it, love it, thank it

I enjoy it

Here and now. 

Oh, you fabulous, naughty, soothing, shiny, happy timeframe...

I see you hanging around those I adore.

 I am big fan of yours.

 I honor the passage...

 I honor the visit...

 I ask you to stay as long as you can-

Ode to a good [insert time frame here]

 Quiet and small, or big and ridiculous good [timeframe]

 Embraced as possible

 Understood for what it is

Celebrated, no matter the reason

Dare to be happy or silly or joyous.

Here's to your good [moment, minute, hour, day, week, month, year].

 Here's to you.
