Go figure, you can miss what annoys you

It's funny how the people or things that annoy you are something you would miss if they weren't there. The same is true apparently for animals. Our neighbors got a new dog that my dog would angrily get in confrontations with daily, each fighting from their side of the fence. You would have thought she would be happy when they moved yet she seems to miss him. For a couple of days she would take off barking as she charged to the fence in attack mode. As time went on she realized the dog was not going to run to the fence to greet her. Now after she roams the yard she sits right next to the fence looking and hoping to see the annoying dog charging at her. Go figure.

One less second to live

When you have hate in your heart for someone or something it does permanent damage. We all know the dangers of clogging your arteries with fatty foods will cause your heart to pump harder. Anger also causes your heart to work harder as it causes it to tighten and clog up. Staying away from too many fried foods as well as too much negative emotions, which both can be avoided, is a Healthy Heart Choice. Don't let what angers you stay in your mind long enough to grow roots that reaches your heart squeezing the very life out of you. Every second that your heart has to work twice as hard to sustain your life is one less second it will be able to keep you alive. Every time you can "Just Flush It" you gain a second. When you skip the fries, another second.

Prevent a circuit overload

There will be many challenges that you will have to face in life. In order to prevent a circuit overload which will negatively effect your over all well being you should STOP till you decide if it is even a "challenge" you need to face. If you first eliminate those that would be a waste of your time and energy you will have lightened your load of challenges. Next you should put the remaining challenges in a list of priority and face the most important ones head on. Don't overwhelm yourself with a dead line that pushes you to the limit and you will prevent a circuit overload.

Wisdom to avoid the hardships

Trying to pass on the information to save someone from having to face the same negative outcome as you had seems to be a challenge these days. The lessons you learn in life are lessons learned whether it is through your own experiences or from the mistakes you saw others face before you. A wise man will always choose to learn by observing as opposed to suffering the hardship that could have been avoided. Just by paying attention and by listening to others with your ears and eyes wide open you will learn many lessons. Wisdom does not have to be painful. It can be as easy as you make it and if you would simply learn what you can from others you will have the wisdom to avoid the hardships.

Despite the outcome

When all is said and done will you feel comfortable with what you have done? Feeling good about what you did in certain situations is more important than the outcome of the situation. If the outcome is in your favor yet you damaged your character to get the outcome then you won't be able to comfortably enjoy it. The best things in life are not the ones with the best outcome but the ones you are proud of how you handled them despite the outcome. It's like being rich the outcome being an enormous income but that won't make you happy. You won't be comfortable even in your own skin if you are not comfortable with what you are doing in the skin your in.

Don't just walk away

When you see other people who are facing major issues that you know you can not help them with in any way, don't just walk away. They know that there are times when there is nothing that can be done so they are not looking for an answer from you. Just lending an ear to let them say outloud that it can not be solved is all they need so they can "Just Flush It" out and move on. Just suggesting that they let it go because you can see that there is nothing they can do about the issue is just what they need to help them flush out the negative emotions so they can have room for positive thoughts to get in.

Have you ever noticed.....

Have you ever worried yourself sick stressing out over what might happen? Have you ever noticed that the "issue" you thought you would have to face that you had been stressing over turned out to be nothing you needed to worry about? Have you ever noticed that you are not only mentally but physically wore out despite the positive outcome? Don't make yourself explore every negative outcome to an "issue" that is doing real damage not because they are happening but because your worried they might happen.
