In every single one of my husband’s professional army pictures, he looks so… Angry. (You thought I was going to say handsome, didn’t you? He does look handsome, but in a grouchy kind of way.)
I know, I know—it is kind of the culture. Our men in the army are tough guys and these photos are professional purposes, not for posting obnoxious selfies on Facebook to Twitter or for saving as our phone wallpaper.
Although I tease him about the intensity of his pictures, I have a slight confession to make: Sometimes I approach life the same way.
Don’t get me wrong, I love to smile. And in my “natural” environment, I am a giggly, bubbly person. But sometimes I allow myself to get bogged down with the “seriousness” of life. Then my attitude looks more somber and scary than even my hubby’s drill sergeant photo.
And nobody wants to see THAT. #Terrifying
So today, we need to talk about some not-so-serious business: Life. Laughter. And how they can work together.
Want to read the rest of this not-so-serious-yet-hopefully-humorous post? Pop on over to Army Wife Network to check it out. Pretty please? (Don’t make me beg. You know I will do it.)
Smiling Through It,
Linking up today with my sweet friend Beth over at Three-word Wednesday. Oh! And be sure to join our #EverydayJesus link-up community right here at 7 Days Time every Thursday!
