I finally found my smile, It was lost and gone for a while!

A smile is one of the greatest and definitely the cheapest way, to cheer up another person!

After the huge mistake I made (mentioned in last post), my mood has been a bit down for a while - but now it's up again - great!

I am really trying to smile at the picture 😂


My wife's first reaction when I told her about my "little" mistake, was a huge shock - the only thing she could say, was;

"why, why, why" - she kept asking me, again and again (just like the holy woman in Game of Thrones, chanting; "shame, shame, shame" to Cercei Lanister).

It annoyed me BIG time and I was mad at my self, for being so stupid - it was gone, everything; pictures, unpublished blog posts and private documents & other stuff.

"Let done be done, forget and go on!" - a quote from my now smiling wife (after she had swallowed the shock).

The above-mentioned statement both sounds good and it's easy to say - but to live by it - that's the hard part!

I was very glad to see my wife smiling again, but it was still hard for me - "there were so many great pictures and pictures from a friend's wedding!".

It's not a secret that I live my life in pain, and if there is something that triggers bad mood, it's pain (you all know the feeling of having severe backpains or an annoying headache, making you not wanting to talk with or look at other peoples).

But then our oldest son (age 4) told me;

"Dad, why are you still so sad about loosing all those pictures? -summer comes again next year and then you can take some new pictures!".

Then he started playing like he was Lightning McQueen from the new Cars movie and his little brother were Bumle.").

After that moment, I started to smile again;

My wife were smiling, laughing and playing with our two boys - all three together, playing that they were racing cars, "driving/running" thru the entire apartment... Wruum, Wruuuum, Wruuuum!


I sad for a while, watching them play,
I thought about my failure, and throw it away! - in the end I joined them, I was playing they're game, my wheelchair became the Blue car, whose name is "The King"!


With big support from my family, I got "on" my feet again and also learned a few lesson:

  1. Backups (do them when prompted, instead of skip, delay and forget).
  2. Don't get so sad about things I can't change - I will get the opportunity again another day.
  3. Backups, backups and backups of the backups! 😂

It could be super fun, @juanmallorca - but I simply don't know if the "hardware" witch was operated into my back will hold?

I am very careful about my back, after it have went wrong so many times (to many times).

At the moment I am waiting for a spot in an special workout place - I hope to know more about what I can and can't, when I'm done.

If I'm lucky and my back gets and thumbs up (from the fysisians and doctor's), then I will enjoy getting a session like the person in the movie - with support from Steemit! 💪😎
