I am happy to be at the end of the week. Don’t get me wrong I love where I work and the work I do matters but I like the weekends. This is one of those times of day when I feel like I have given my best and helped my team at work do their best. Now is time to chill out and enjoy what the weekend holds.
Whatever you are up to this weekend, may it be great. Enjoy yourselves. Be awesome doing it too!
Pretending to look busy on a Friday is hard work. I think everyone agrees with this.
The world is changing whether we like it or not. What was new is now old. The good old days were not good for everyone. Gays can get married in this country now and in other countries. There is a person of color who is president of the United States. Your cell phone replaces a lot of different things like your camera and your personal music player. Boys play with dolls and have tea parties while girls wear cammo and drive a pickup truck. Girls have more opportunities to be awesome women. Racism seems to be sticking around although things are getting better. Men stay at home to care for family and children. Women are running big companies and a few have run countries. Some women are even ministers. The old boy network is being shattered daily. Johnny Carson is no longer on the Tonight Show. Netflix is a noun and a verb, so is Google for that matter. Change is hard, even for me. Traditions adapt to modern times. We are a digital world with some analog people. The struggle continues but more and more the world is changing. Are you going to keep up or fall by the way side?
Everyone goes through a rough patch about something. Trying not to panic and staying cool through it all is a challenge. Our response to stressful events in life says a little about who we are. People react differently to things and its easy to lose your composure when facing a difficult situation.
My advice is to breathe, meditate, pray. Keeping things in perspective can be helpful. Breaking down something big into more manageable elements is always good. Little victories can snowball into big wins. So my friends whatever you are going through is a temporary event, you can make it through, do your best.
Don’t panic, stay cool…have peace too!
Today is Monday and it feels like it. It’s going to be one of those days, I can tell. Powering through is the order of the day. I hope it gets better as it goes along. Let’s see what happens. I think caffeine is going to be my friend. Have the best day possible good people.
When a blogger returns to the scene after a absence it’s a joyous thing. Over time you get used to seeing them post daily and then all of a sudden they disappear so you wonder what happened to them. I am always glad to see folks come back after being away. For some a break is needed because they get writers block or perhaps they need to find their passion again.
Sometimes a bloggers computer is on the fritz or perhaps there are temporary Internet problems which make blogging impossible. I have taken breaks from blogging but I am not gone very long because this is a passion for me. Unfortunately some bloggers have to leave for safety sake and that is a horrible way to be forced offline.
To all who have come and gone and are back again its a joyous time. Don’t stay gone so long next time! Keep on blogging!
