...a blog is born

I am not the type of guy who feels sorry for people who are miserable, do to their current situation in life.  No exceptions!  I understand that there are uncontrollable forces at work, and on RARE occasions people are hurled into situations that are dire and hopeless…but feeling sorry for your self is a dead end road better left untraveled.

Most instances of health, wealth, relationship, and happiness “doom and gloom” misfortunes are not of that rare type.  They are instead self-inflicted.   They are a logical progression of continuously making bad decisions and masking these decisions with excuses. 

Over the last couple of years I have noticed a new phenomenon spreading out and gaining traction.  People are validating each others’ excuses, giving them substance, and mitigating their own involvement in their calamity.  It helps them maintain a self image they can live with, while continuing on whatever fruitless path that they are on.

So… this blog is born.  I will focus on the root cause of dismay and unmask the culprits of peril.  Maybe some good will come out of it.  I will also have a fact or fiction contest once a week.  Comments, questions, and stories are welcome and will be addressed.  cmj

  2. lol...there is never "extra time"...Only "Present Time" - the only thing that matters is what you are doing at this very moment of your existence. "NOW" shapes the future and writes the past.
