How are you doing today?

I wonder what the top ten answers to that question are?  I would love to take a survey to find out. I have been paying more attention to my own response to that question recently.  I answer that question and similar ones 90% of the time with "Busy" or "Good".

So what if people remembered us based on our top two answers to that question?  I guess people would remember me as "David BusyGood" or "Mister GoodBusy".  Isn't our life just the sum of a bunch of days?  And what if a majority of those days I was simply "Good-n-busy"?  That is a crappy thing to be remembered by, a crappy thing to have on a gravestone. I would be remembered for having a full schedule, and enjoying it at a slightly positive level.  Boring.   

Soon my answers will be more like "Awesome! You gotta hear about my week..."  or "Wow, things are going great! Want to hear hear why?"  or if I am really hurting to say "not great...want to hear about it?".    I am excited to get out of this hyperactive mediocrity,  Full-of-motion-void- of-life kind of thingy...I hope y'all will slap me next time you hear "good" or "busy" in explaining how I am doing.  It's either that wake up slap or I continue to put you to sleep by giving you my dissertation on why my life is just "good" or "busy", something you are probably not all that intrigued by anyway.

How do you want people to remember you?

What will the sum of your individual days be?
