Rambling About Personal Friendships and Relationships

I read about a lot of people who cut people out of their lives. Ending relationships and friendships is not an easy decision to make. For a long time I did that with one person I had a spiritual and historical connection with. Some folks change so radically and its not always in ones best interest to keep them around in your lives.

Dysfunctional relationships are painful and often times you have to end them. I really try to offer grace and patience in all the relationships I have with people but I have my limits. Relating to people means having some humility and finding out more about who they are. We live in a time of where personal issues or “drama” as we like to call it can be so magnified on social media and through technology that we make snap judgements about things. I am guilty of that as well as everyone else.

My hope is to keep as many friends as I can, do my best to be there for them and not worry about not being liked by everyone I know. The key thing is to be myself and to be the best person I can be. Sometimes quality friendships are more important than how many friends you have.

Blogging Fanboy

I am a huge fan of bloggers. You are my favorite thing online to get excited about. Your stories and lives are very interesting and fun. Thanks for allowing me to fanboy over your blogs and to connect with you in a geeky way.

Quote Of The Day

The love of what you do, combined with your belief in what you do, will not determine your success. It will determine how hard you will work and how dedicated you will be to achieving it. Success just shows up from there.

Awww Man It’s Monday!

Yep, Monday’s back and that makes many of us sad a little. My birthday weekend was great and I appreciate all the warm regards and well wishes. Today begins a new week and I am ready for Friday already. However we got business to take care of. It’s less than a week til our vacation which I am looking forward to. A week off will be good so this time next week I will be somewhere else that I will tell you more about later.

So for now, we commence Monday. Let’s see how things go. Have a great day everyone, if you dare.

Open Your Eyes, Open Your Heart

It doesn’t matter if you are ridiculously good looking (to borrow a phrase from Zoolander) or plain jane you are a person worthy of being seen for who you are. We live in a very shallow world where your appearance and looks are what matters most. The cult of celebrity has impacted how we see the world and ourselves. If we took time to see the best in people no matter what is on the outside the world would be a much better place.

People want to be loved and to love so the appearance issue shouldn’t be an issue but for some it really is. Life is too short to overlook based on looks. Be beautiful on the inside and out. Love one another as you want to be loved. Open your eyes and see people.  Open your heart and good things will come forth.

Be pretty awesome, no matter what!

Rambling About Being Too Nice

I am too nice for my own good. Sometimes I am nice to a fault and let people walk over me. I guess its because I wanna get along with everyone. We need more nice people in the world but perhaps with a bit of moxie and vinegar when needed.
