The Holidays Are Coming

The Holidays Are Coming

Get your smile on because The Holidays Are Coming. I try my best to see and talk to my friends and family all the time. The holidays are when you see or talk to someone you haven't done so in a really long time. 

The holidays are the time to give love to everyone even if you don't get that love back. Yes, I said EVERYONE. Giving love to someone you don't care for, will put a smile on your face. It's not the time to remind yourself why you didn't like that person. It's the time to show that person(s) that love is in the air.

I'm not a religious person and my view has nothing to do with GOD. It has everything to do with LOVE. To wait until the holidays to be nice to everyone is just wrong. However, if it takes the holidays to love everyone unconditionally so be it. Maybe, if you do so, it might carry over into the new year or even forever.

Some people, who don't especially like the holidays, feel they will have too put-up with family they don't like, eat too much food and get fat, depressed because they don't have that special one by their side or are just "BA-HUM-BUG. These people just can't find happiness in the loving the holidays gives them. They probably can't fine the love life gives them.

I will be with the people I love and who love me. I will show my love to everyone even if they just cut my lawn. I will find my happiness in everything I do. I will care for those who don't have all that I have. I will love my life even if I have to make tough decisions to make it so.

Sooo, what about YOU? Well, you better think about it NOW because:

The Holidays Are Coming

I Love Women

 I Love Women

You all know I'm a guy. So, when most people hear me say I love women, they believe I must be talking about sex (not that there's anything wrong with that). However, my love for women is because they're interesting. 

Most men are boring to other men. They almost never talk about their feelings. Say sports, and you have their attention. Say politics and you'll never get a word in. Say, what did you buy lately, and they tell you about their new golf clubs. Say, what kind of clothes do you like, and they look at you like you're from Mars. Say, what movies do you love and they say: "The Terminator."

I'm non-standard because I talk about my feelings. Sure, I love sports, but I rather talk about more interesting things. Ask me about politics and I avoid the subject because it almost always gets me into a situation I don't want to be in. I love to look nice. Clean shaven with good looking clothes makes me feel good. Ask me about shopping and I say I need a woman to take me.

Am I Gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) no, I just like what most women like. Many women cry. I cry like a baby at the movie "Sleepless In Seattle." Ask a woman what movies do they like and they tell you about movies men never watch. Most women don't want to get into a back and forth about politics. 

Most women talk about many, many things that most men never talk about - that's why they're so interesting. One problem, ask them about shopping for shoes, handbags, clothes, etc. and they won't shut the fuck up.

I think I have more women friends than men friends and I have many, many men friends. If you cry on the shoulder of a man friend, he will say I'm so sorry. Cry on the shoulder of a woman and she gives you a hug.

Sooo, you men out there, spend more time talking to women because they are a lot more interesting than your macho men friends.

Rule number one is, don’t sweat the small stuff. Rule number two is, it’s all small stuff.

 Rule number one is, don’t sweat the small stuff. Rule number two is, it’s all small stuff.

— Robert Eliot, author

Worry, worry, worry - we worry a lot. We worry about our finances. We worry about the kids. We worry about what's going on in the world. We worry about climate change. We worry about our health. We just do a shit load of worrying.

We worry about the small stuff, and we worry about the big stuff. The thing is 95% of the things we worry about is the small stuff. However, even the big stuff is small stuff. WOW, are you telling me that if I have cancer that doesn't count as big stuff? I say it depends on how you view your life.

If you view your life with cancer as a death sentence and stop living life, then cancer is big stuff. However, if you view your life with cancer as having limited time to get the most out of the life you have left, then cancer is the small stuff.

I don't want to live a life full of big stuff. I want to think about the problems in my life as all small stuff. I've decided not to sweat the small stuff. I'm going to find a way to put all my bad stuff in the background and focus on the most important stuff - living my life.

I have a really bad back. It hurts all the time. However, my attitude is that my engine and my transmission are in great shape - I just have bad bumpers. So, to me, my back is the small stuff. It can't stop me from living the life I want and deserve. I do everything I can do to minimize the pain, but even on a bad day, I enjoy the things I can do, not the things I can't do.

My point is life is good - worrying is bad. Worrying will make my back worse. Worrying will make cancer worse. Worrying will increase your stress. Stress is a killer. Sooo, stop all that worrying and remember these two rules:

Rule number one is, don’t sweat the small stuff. Rule number two is, it’s all small stuff.
