 I reserve the right to delete comments I feel are not in keeping with my values on this blog, which basically means, but is left solely to my discretion: no spam, no blatant advertisements, no hate, no inappropriate language. Agreeing with me is not a requirement, discussion is welcome. |
Change is healthy. Experimentation is healthy – to a point. I should be reading, scanning, working, cleaning. I’m not. Experimenting with plugins and organizing is more fun, though, the latter is being done more in my head than in reality. I am going back to the organized me, she comes and goes. Let’s see how long it lasts this time. After days of rain, skies clear, sun peeks out, birds and children splash in remaining puddles, steam rises to form clouds.
Time does not stretch as far as a rubber band, it merely dissolves right in the middle of a job! Lollipops and tootsie roll pops, wax lips and snow cones, vanilla ice cream with chocolate sauce. Amazing that we expect everyone to fix our screw ups. It is not that we don’t also fix the screw ups of others, but that we repeat our own and not just once or twice. That is what makes it abuse, self-abuse. Whether we just procrastinate, talk ourselves into, “it can’t happen to me,” or just can’t be bothered or don’t care, not taking care of our needs, both mentally and physically is really a form of self-abuse. It is not that some of the things we need to do are really that hard either… they are merely habits… There is an old saying among dancers (and who knows who else). It is, “Do the step 100 times and it is yours.” They, and many athletes, also, visualize their entire performance before doing it. We have done that unconsciously in a negative way with all our bad habits. We can do it now consciously in a positive way. Let’s be dancers and athletes about our physical and mental health… It only takes 100 times of doing it right to make it habit… so they say… And it could actually be fun trying to get there…. Stop the self-abuse of neglect and bad habits. Become the person you are capable of being… Why on earth not? Written as part of the Stop Abuse project found at the link below. We can make a difference if we just put out the effort. I also wrote about three other abuses, links to all four can be found here: McLeesBogaert Please, if you have something to say about Abuse, any Abuse, speak up, say it…. say it in your blog, post it on someone else’s blog, write it somewhere, say it out loud…. One of us will make a difference. It doesn’t matter which one of us as long as it is someone.
The challenge was issued above, click for more info. But basically, we are to do our part at bringing awareness to people. Join us tomorrow, 09/27/07, in writing about abuse of any kind. We need to be reminded, we need answers, we need encouragement… and bloggers are a big part of the world now. We have influence, we need to speak up. I am speaking up on my four blogs tomorrow… I have chosen three types of abuse to write on and will let my unconscious mind choose the fourth. Join me? A person with good acuity, forethought, patience, and spatial reasoning can fit 2 feet of stuff in a 1 foot space, but cannot get in another 3 more. A cloudy afternoon on an otherwise hot day, a cool breeze rustling leaves, a bird in the distance just being itself. One person’s definition of hard work is not and will not be the same as anothers. |
