Tomorrow we may but today we will

I saw a commercial that caught my eye and I have issues with it. The premise was “the beauty of tomorrow”. Interesting and valid but I live a little different.  From the bible, karma and every other religion based belief there is no promise of a tomorrow. I do love to plan, make list and accomplish my task but tomorrow is merely a hope of things to come. With that I live like today is my last day. My friends and family give the strength to be a better person and my past leads me to make better choices but I still gotta be me and LIVE. I cannot sit around and hope and wish my life away, I am too busy living it. No matter what it is or how trivial it may be I do it today! Why? Cause yes tomorrow is not promised and it could wait but it makes me feel stronger to do it today. I go places and do things I may not do but that is the beauty of doing it. It is not always about you sometimes it is about the journey and taking that step to do it. Try it and today do something you may think “oh I can do it tomorrow”. For tomorrow we may but today we will!!!!!! JUST GO DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why they call it falling

I guess Lee Ann Womack nailed it when she belted that song out. How many times have we been there? We say we are not going to fall for someone and then out of the blue, one little smile and its all out the window. Before we know what has happened we are picking ourselves up off the floor in pieces. More times that I would like to say, I have been hurt by caring too much.   Even more times than that I have sworn that I would not care and I would be ok with this one. Yet I continue to get hurt and am a friend to many who do the same thing. Is it so bad? I would rather go through life with pain than to live with nothing. Pain reminds me I am alive and that I still care. It is a burden to bare a life lived without emotions. We are creatures of love and compassion. We live our lives trying to be a part of something and more of that time is spent trying to care. We gauge ourselves and others on how they care. We almost set ourselves up to cause and feel pain. Many even try to end thing...

Stop running and do it

Several conversations held over the last week led me to this entry. Relationships, life, friends, work and life in general revolve around our evaluation of choices versus consequences yet we fail miserably at being honest with ourselves.  Few know this horrible truth as well as I do but we sometimes cannot get past it. Why is it we can lay down our life for others but we do little to keep ourselves happy let alone make choices to make ourselves happy. It hit me when the call came and the voice on the other end was near complete and utter demise over a choice which to me was crystal clear. Without being the “I told you so” person I listened and allowed them to talk themselves into it. Very often we just need to “hear it come out of our own mouth” to truly grasp the reality of what lies ahead. Once the journey moved off the brink of oblivion to a “comfortable numbness of reality” the question I feared most was asked: “Why didn’t you tell me?” Five simple words that burn like fire and...
