Good Morning. Good Evening. Whatever time of day this finds you, may it be good. God bless your life. This is the part of our interaction where I get some more stuff out of the way, maybe because I’m new to this blogging thing and feel the need to explain everything.
I intend to greet readers at the beginning of every blog post for a few reasons. It’s polite. That’s how I was raised. A little positivity never hurt anybody. But the biggest reason might be that one of these days I might wake up and not do it, or do it and not mean it. One of these days I might wake up to my own problems, which could quite possibly take precedence over my good will hunting, and all the spirituality in the world won’t give me the strength to say hello, or mean it. Now some people might confuse this with smiling to save face or plastic courtesy. That’s fine with me, I don’t determine what you do with what I give you, only what I give. The new age developed world way of doing things is don’t give anything you can’t physically get back something for. I don’t like that way of thinking so I’m going to do my best to live against it....
I’m human. This is the abbreviated explanation for I get selfish, angry, biased, lazy, depressed, basically every negative feeling we all run across at some point. And I’m a guy, so everytime a woman walks into my sphere of vision I have a different set of challenges to deal with, sexual or otherwise. If one or all these problems don’t prove my inadequacy, or lead to my exhaustion, they’ll do both. So yes, I got other things I could be doing or worrying about besides your good day.
Here’s the thing though. The more people around you that have a good day, the more likely you are to have a good day. Like I said in an earlier post, human beings are the most incredible creatures on the planet. One of the reasons for this is that they have the biggest influence on their sorroundings. If you have a live in partner for example, when you walk in the room at the end of your good day and that room is filled with the atmosphere of their bad day, your whole day is automatically going to be affected. One of your atmospheres is going to win. Angry partners means angry families. Angry families mean angry communities. And it just gets bigger. You can switch out angry with happy, broken, depressed, perverted, peaceful, adventurous and so on and so forth. The result is the same. Every broken home started with a broken person.
Life and the ability to enjoy it is a lot simpler than we think, it just takes a little work. I try to live against the give something expecting something tangible policy because it’s bigger than that. You will NEVER ever get nothing for something you give. This goes for effort, a break, good vibes, time or even a dollar to a homeless drug addicted drunk. It’s not your job to determine what you get for what you give, but know that you will get exactly what you give. It just might take a little longer to get it.
Wow. Why does good truthful reflection always sound so corny? Good day to you and yours....
