People are always asking me why Travis is so happy all the time...Doesn't he ever have a bad day, or does anything really bother him..
Well..the answer is YES he has bad days, and YES things bother him HOWEVER he has this amazing ability to see the positive in almost anything! His perspective makes all the difference, he embraces trials as a time to learn and grow...
Perspective makes all the difference!!!!!
Not a fake outlook on life, but a real, true, brighter outlook! Quite the compliment to my personality..he completely balances me.
What bothers me about people questioning Travis is this:
What is so wrong with Joy, happiness, and being positive??
Are we so jaded as a society that happiness makes us uncomfortable and we just don't know how to react to it??
Yes, life is hard, and yes we are constantly looking to better ourselves, BUT how awesome that Travis can see what so many others cannot see: Joy in everyday life!!!!
I thank God for giving me a husband that can look at life with a smile:)
I believe Travis shows me a glimpse of the Lords heart, in that the darkest of situations; there is always cause to give thanks, there is always cause to give, there is always cause to spread love, and there is always a different season around the corner.
So, for those of you that question Travis: I say, LET HIM BE HIMSELF, HE TRULY IS A POSITIVE PERSON, AND GET USED TO IT!!!!!
JOY IS FROM THE LORD!!!
Jeremiah 29:11 The Message I'll show up and take care of you as I promised and bring you back home. I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
Philippians 4:8-9
whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Amen! I miss his cheery smile around here! And yes, you really, really, do need someone like him to balance you, so thank God that He was so gracious as to bless you. You two should come to Johnny's for yogurt sometime.
