Halloween 2010

I used to not really enjoy Halloween as a young kid growing up.  Sure I liked the candy and could eat it all day but I just did not really enjoy it for some reason and now looking back I wish I would have more.  It has seriously crept up in as one of my favorite holidays.  It is the one day a year that you can put on a literal mask and be any person that you want to be.  Ethan wanted to be a doctor for Halloween and for the day he was Dr. Ethan.  Tyler wanted to be a cowboy for Halloween and for the day he was the wildest cowboy in the West.

On a more philosophical note I guess I have come to realize more this year than any other time in my life that each day is a new day and I choose at the beginning of each day and throughout the day who and what I am going to become and stand for.  Some days are easy and require little effort to become who I am trying to become.  Then there are the days were I feel like every single thing that I try and do and every single thought that I have only pull me further away from where I want to be.  I am trying to live each minute, hour, and day like it is Halloween.  Who do I choose to be today?
