Wisdom in everyday life

blame game

  • Life on the edge

    Last post was the accumulation of months perhaps years of needing and wanting help. The eternal idea that somehow, someway, I would get answers to some pressing issues that frankly have stopped me in my tracks. Like a bad diagnosis, or news you can’t run from sometimes shit happens and you just have to take… Read more

  • Asking for help

    I don’t like asking for help because for most of my life there has been no one around to ask. When I am standing in shit I get the mop out and clean it up myself because nobody else is going to. I have learned the hard way, over and over again, that people will… Read more

  • Loneliness in a far off land

    Dealing with hard issues far away from home or your comfort zone can make the grey seem even more grey. I was so glad the sun came out yesterday because it helped me see clearer the issues I am dealing with. I wake up today and the grey is everywhere and my heart was disturbed.… Read more

  • And the sun brightens the gloom

    I have learned that when I am at my most upset, angry beyond words what is actually happening is sadness I am unwilling to acknowledge sitting in my chest. When we get hurt by those close to us the pain can be quickly swallowed by anger and a sweet person can rapidly turn into a… Read more

  • Learn to shut up!

    There is a point in your life or at least there should be when the bull shit of your family or friends stops being something you are interested in and what you want is for everybody to shut the hell up. It is embarrassing the amount of wasted breath spent on words and thoughts that… Read more

  • So many questions

    I have to many questions. So many questions and nowhere to go for answers. I think lots of people feel this way. What’s going to happen? When will it happen? Will it ever happen? Questions questions questions! What is the answer? Where do we go for answers? And do we even get to have the… Read more

  • Smart Asses

    Ok, I get it, all the world is a stage but some people just need to get off the said stage. I am so tired of smart ass remarks. I swear Jerry Seinfeld ruined everything by creating smart asses across the world and now they are torturing us all with their pithy statements. I say… Read more

  • Stand up

    I am sitting in another town trying to decide on the turn I feel coming up on my path. Most of my adult life if I change my driver’s license to match my address I will move soon after that. This last time I didn’t even think about it until I got my new license… Read more

  • Laughing to myself

    “No one is ever more him/herself than when they really laugh. Their defenses are down. It’s very Zen-like, that moment. They are completely open, completely themselves when that message hits the brain and the laugh begins. That’s when new ideas can be implanted. If a new idea slips in at that moment, it has a… Read more

  • This to shall pass

    This too shall pass because this is only temporary. This day is only temporary, this is Wednesday July 11th and this day shall pass. And tomorrow will be another day and no matter the importance of this day or the next day these days are only temporary. She says to herself over and over again… Read more
