ACCEPTING IT doesn't mean that.....

     Just because you ACCEPT what has happened doesn't mean that you AGREE with what has happened.

     It just means that LIFE IS LIFE and the ROLLERCOASTER OF LIFE is full of UPS and DOWNS as well as TWISTS and TURNS.

     Which is why the church sign I saw taught me to ACCEPT IT then JUST FLUSH IT out of my mind so PEACE OF MIND will have ROOM to GET IN.

     The church sign said....

     It's okay to sit on your pity-potty every now and again just be sure and FLUSH when you are done.

      Because no matter what you do LIFE is full of CHALLENGES that you will have to FACE because that is LIFE.

      Some people FACE MORE PROBLEMS than others do but that is just LIFE and we all have to ADJUST to ENJOY LIFE while we are LIVING IT.

     WASTING your LIFE COMPLAINING about all the CHALLENGES that you have FACED just keeps it FRESH ON OUR MIND.

     So take the PAINFUL EXPERIENCES you are FACING and LEARN WHAT YOU NEED TO from them then....JUST FLUSH IT out of your mind.

    Because for you to HAVE PEACE OF MIND you have to JUST FLUSH IT out of your mind so PEACE OF MIND will have ROOM to GET IN. 

     

Getting REAL with YOURSELF means....

    If you are HONEST with YOURSELF then you will HONESTLY KNOW what is THE TRUTH so you will KNOW WHAT IS REAL.

     If you PRETEND that something NEGATIVE that is HAPPENING ISN'T REAL then you could GET HURT by WHAT IS HAPPENING.

     BEING HONEST MAY HURT but you will KNOW so that you can PLAN to have the BEST OUTCOME DESPITE what is HAPPENING.

     When you are YOUNG you ASSUME that everything is just FUN but the OLDER you get you REALIZE that LIFE is HARDER than YOU THOUGHT.

     When you KNOW WHAT YOU GOT then you can USE WHAT YOU GOT to GET THROUGH the ROLLERCOASTER OF LIFE.

     Because whether you WANT TO KNOW IT OR NOT you have to GO WITH THE FLOW and BEND LIKE A PRETZEL to ENJOY LIFE WHILE YOU ARE LIVING IT.

     As long as YOU ARE HONEST WITH YOURSELF then YOU WILL FIND a way to MAKE IT WORK. 

    

     

Just because you THINK YOU SHOULD is.....

      What YOU DECIDE is based on more than ONE THING because YOUR DECISION is based on YOUR ENTIRE LIFES EXPERIENCES. 

      Just because you GREW UP in the SAME TOWN as someone it doesn't mean that YOU BOTH GREW UP THE SAME. 

      Just remember that if you keep CHANGING to PLEASE OTHERS before YOU know it YOU will FORGET YOURSELF. 

      And at the end of the day YOU want to be PROUD of WHAT YOU DID TODAY. 

      FOLLOWING what YOU KNOW is RIGHT DESPITE what anyone else says means at the end of the day YOU will be PROUD that YOU DID what was RIGHT.

      Remember that CHOOSING to follow the WORN OUT path may mean that it is WORN OUT because.....

     ...... IT lead to a DEAD END and everyone traveled twice across it to GO a DIFFERENT DIRECTION. 

       At the end of the day will YOU be PROUD of everything YOU DID and SAID TODAY?

Being HAPPY takes FINDING things that you are THANKFUL FOR

      If you are WAITING TO BE HAPPY after you REACHED what you THOUGHT would MAKE YOU HAPPY then....

      How will you FEEL if you WORK REALLY HARD but you DIDN'T GET EVERYTHING that you DREAMED OF for YOUR HARD WORK?

      There will be LOTS OF WORK that it will take to REACH ANYTHING but even if you DON'T REACH IT then.....

     Then you SHOULD have many HAPPY THOUGHTS about everything that YOU DID DO to TRY to GET IT because YOU WORKED HARD. 

      YOUR PRIDE is based on YOUR CHOICES about DOING WHAT IS NECESSARY not on ONLY IF YOU WON OR NOT.

      Doing the RIGHT THING doesn't mean you will ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT it means that you SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF for DOING THE RIGHT THING.

      YOUR PERCEPTION of WHO YOU ARE is based on whether YOU ARE PROUD OF YOURSELF for EVERYTHING YOU CHOOSE TO DO. 

      At the END OF THE DAY will you be PROUD of everything YOU DID AND SAID TODAY?

      

       

      

All you can do is LISTEN even when you REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND

     Just because you have no way to actually take care of the circumstances they are facing you can HELP them by LISTENING.

     They may only need a MOMENT to LISTEN TO THEMSELVES as they TELL you their circumstances to be able to UNDERSTAND HOW THEY CAN FIX IT.

     They were just OVERWHELMED by the circumstances that they were facing and COULDN'T THINK CLEARLY enough to FIGURE IT OUT.

     But as they TOLD you they began to ACCEPT the circumstances and then they could JUST FLUSH IT out of their mind and then THEY FIGURED IT OUT.

     They just needed to SAY IT to be able to JUST FLUSH IT so PEACE OF MIND would have ROOM to GET IN.

    Take the TIME TO LISTEN to them so they can be able to JUST FLUSH IT and THINK CLEARLY and they will FIGURE IT OUT on THEIR OWN.

Of course I excitedly waited to see who would WIN SURVIVORS TONIGHT but....

     Every New Season of Shows I ENJOY WATCHING comes on and I spend ALL WEEK EVERY WEEK of the Season predicting the OUTCOME.

      There was a time when the SURVIVORS Show started that I had no interest in WATCHING..... then.....I GOT HOOKED on WATCHING it EVERY Season.

      At first I  saw a bunch of people WHO LIED ON EVERY SHOW. 

      I DIDN'T see why someone WHO LIED TO EVERYONE would possibly DESERVE A MILLION DOLLARS FOR BEING A GOOD LIAR.

      I DIDN'T see why those that were GOOD AT CHALLENGES would DESERVE A MILLION DOLLARS instead of the ALWAYS HONEST PLAYER.

     It TOOK ME FIVE SEASONS before when SURVIVORS WAS ON everyone knew to LEAVE ME ALONE so I COULD WATCH EVERY MINUTE OF IT.

     And I mean EVERY MINUTE OF IT because OUT OF THE BLUE a SIMPLE CONVERSATION can happen QUIETLY 🤫  And it CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING.

      TONIGHT is the Finale of SURVIVORS 50 which was FULL OF ONLY PAST PLAYERS THROUGHOUT the different seasons.

      They let famous people and fans come up with UNIQUE IDEAS that would AFFECT the ENTIRE RULES and it has been an AWESOME 50TH SHOW to ENJOY WATCHING. 

      There are MANY PLAYERS THAT I LOVED that have already had their TORCH SNUFFED but to ALL OF THEM I want to say THANK YOU FOR PLAYING AGAIN FOR US ALL.

     I DON'T  KNOW THEM but they have BROUGHT ME MANY YEARS of FUN AWAY FROM MY REGULAR LIFE.

      And sometimes they BROUGHT ME PEACE OF MIND at a time when I was SURROUNDED BY CHAOS and when I was WATCHING THEM the CHAOS WENT AWAY.

     You ALL DIDN'T WIN SURVIVORS when YOU PLAYED but YOU ALL BROUGHT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE PEACE OF MIND EVERY TIME YOU SHOWED UP ON OUR TELEVISIONS.

     And although it AINT A MILLION DOLLARS....it is MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF SMILES you BROUGHT TO US ALL. 

     THANK YOU ALL and I will see you TONIGHT AT 8:00 TO SEE WHO WON SURVIVORS 50.🤔

      

     

     

I BELIEVE that eventually we know what we want so....CHOOSE WISELY

      You LEARN AS YOU GO through Life but at some point you get older and REALIZE that you have to DECIDE WHAT YOU WANT so that you can WORK YOUR WAY TO GET THERE.

      When you are a young adult you LOOK FORWARD to being ABLE to TRY MANY THINGS and you don't STRESS ABOUT IT you just ENJOY DOING something different.

      When you get a little older you have LEARNED a few things by now so you CONSIDER the GOOD PARTS and the BAD PARTS before you DECIDE if you should do it.

      Once you become a PARENT you have to really THINK about not only the GOOD and BAD PARTS but is it WORTH THE MONEY on a tighter budget.

      Then when you become a Grandparent you ALWAYS CHOOSE what your GRANDKIDS would ENJOY DOING because making your GRANDKIDS HAPPY makes YOU HAPPY.

      You get to CHOOSE but how OLD you are seems to AFFECT YOUR WAY OF THINKING.

      You get to CHOOSE so THINK BEFORE YOU DECIDE because once YOU DO IT then you will have to pay the CONSEQUENCES for WHAT YOU CHOSE TO DO.
