bit o' life and love

do you ever feel happy and wonder why this feeling of elation came over you? do you ever feel sad and are not sure why? I truly believe the human condition is so complex...so miraclously beautiful..that we need to just soak in the emotions of life, and not dwell on why this and why that!! often circumstances outside our control dictate where we are emotionally or physically at any given moment..for instance..you cut your hand and have to be rushed to the ER...you stepped on a rusty nail(and who has really stepped on a rusty nail?)..haven't had a tetnus since college?..ouch!!.. a shot is in order...or emotionally..you just had a slight disagreement with a loved one..Life is unpredictable..all we really have control over is how we react to every crazy situation that comes our way..

It is so much easier to handle life's daily march if we love ourselves just a litte bit more..if we don't who will? we can't expect someone else to make us happy..It is not possible..I recently put away my halo..of trying to make everyone around me happy..I thought I possessed magical powers..funny..53 years of trying..my magic must of been cast from an extremely weak spell..as i always came up short..dang..the unhappy was? you guessed it.. still unhappy..so dear folks in bloggerland or any other land..I am here to tell you..what good ol' Shakespeare so wisely said, "to thine own self be true" please!!! if I could shout it from the swiss alps I would.."to thine own self be true" nobody has the right....to control..manipulate, berate, smother, humiliate, bully, yell at, scream at..hit..you..you are a wonderful creature of God..I am here to give permission to love yourself..your gorgeous old self..so walk a little merrier..sing a little bit louder..whistle away...go buy an ice cream cone..kiss the mirror...because heck..you never know when you are going to step on a rusty nail..ouch!!!
