Everything Can’t Be Important, Even Though We Are Taught Differently

Seriously, this is very important. In fact, it's the law.

If you listen carefully to the scripting in American culture, we are taught that everything is important.

Note: The unwritten goal at all my blogs is to help others pause for a moment and interpret what each post means to them. Example: when we allow our minds to become confused and distracted because “everything seems important”, we can never decide for ourselves what really is.

And can you imagine how free a person becomes when they ultimately figure it out for themselves and it’s only a handful instead of a truckload? I can.

Addicted to Thankfulness?

It is extraordinarily uncommon to be fully conscious and in the moment all day, every day.

Why?  No seriously, why?

If being thankful is such a blessing, why do we spend so little time doing it?  Perhaps the same can be said for being healthy.

If being healthy is such a blessing, why do we spend so little time getting and staying healthy?

I think it’s because we over commit, over schedule, and, under plan. There’s a saying, “Failure to plan is planning to fail.”

I’m addicted to thankfulness.  Grateful for the ability to think about issues like this. Excited to have daily challenges. Encouraged by slow and steady progress toward reconciliation.

Yes indeed, thankfulness is a drug. Don’t forget to take your medicine.

Mid Life Crisis?

Mid Life Crisis?  Mid Life Celebration?

Two choices.  Maybe there are more, but it only seems like two that are obvious.

So if you had a choice, which would you pick?

No brainer, eh?

Yep, no brainer.  Then why are so many unhappy?

Because life is hard.  Sometimes, it even feels impossible.
