I just saw a T-Shirt that said;
“SEEK DISCOMFORT”.
In our lifetime, and generations prior, we have
been sold a bill of goods that tells us we ought to
seek comfort, pursue pleasures, and embrace familiarity.
We’ve been conditioned to think that the “Good things in Life”
are to be found within the familiar (Go with what you know!),
what’s comfortable (Easy does it!), and pleasurable
(Do what makes you feel happy!).… —-> Continue…
In Life, the real race isn’t about
running against someone else.
There won’t always be crowds
cheering you on to victory.
It’s just you.
It’s your race.

It is my hope that for a day,
we can all agree on this;

In particular – the people in & about our lives.… —-> Continue…
Sometimes it takes a tragedy to cause us
to take hold of our lives and create triumph.
From the rumble of toppled buildings
to crushed & shattered dreams and hopes;
where we go from here all starts at a beginning.
Do we rebuild from rubble with the same anger,
greed, hate and self centered agenda that brought
them down – brought Us down – in the first place?… —-> Continue…
I think it was Ben Franklin who said;
“All things in moderation”.
I have found this to be
great wisdom and advice,
and also used quite a
bit as a justification.
Similarly when we hear
that we should keep a
healthy balance in our Life -
what is missing in these sage
bits of understanding is the knowing
what exactly is being weighed in.… —-> Continue…
