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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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...

Are you living?

I was talking with a friend this weekend and the thought lite went off. We were both venting about our jobs and how nice the weekend is until Sunday when the dread of Monday sets in. WTF? From Eat Pray Love , “I built this life and was involved in it” but how has it became this drone existence. Every song on radio praises the weekend and despises the work week and SO DO WE ALL!!!! How sad this is that we live for 100 days out of 365 in our year around the sun. This has been on my mind for a while and everyone I speak to seems to have the same story. We work and live for the weekend but what kind of living is that? I know better than most that work is a four letter word which I must do but I want it to be a happy part of my life not merely a necessity. I chose this career over one I love for money and it is taking its toll. I have molded myself into a corporate drone who sits in traffic, gets the Monday blues on Sunday and has little life during the week. Yes, I am not living; I am s...
