Tumultuous

Which we all know means turbulent, confused, chaotic, disorderly, riotous, and noisy, is it over yet?

Each new year brings different things for us to obsess over or not…but when effects happen to us personally we would have to be heartless, senseless and cold as ice not to feel what is going on around us.

Closing our eyes doesn’t make it go away, ignoring it doesn’t either.
I began to write a used to be common lament of this tame season of “Lazy hazy days of summer’, but for some reason it sounded wrong and so simplistic and non relatable at this point in all that we as a nation and world has gone through; it appears to be only a distant memory of what once was, long ago in a land far away in a different time continuum…
Little did I realize that one of Star Trek’s opening lines would appear in my vocabulary in the year 2011?
It would be considered almost funny if it wasn’t so sad and prophetic in its own miserable way.

Gosh, my mind spins nightly on how to talk about mundane things, which I still consider relevant, but it seems almost irreverent with all that is going on in this world that we all know and love.

Could that be crazy, to some, that the guy, the reverend, who predicted us and our world’s demise could have been right?
The second possible day of the Apocalypse is scheduled for October, if I recall that I believe to be his next prediction, hmm?
NAH! I won’t give into such beliefs.
No matter what the earth is trying to say; it needs us.
But does it; as much as we need it?

I won’t succumb to this negative way of thinking, what good would it do?
Like everyone else I bet though it may have crossed your minds?
No?
Than I am just as crazy as that soothsayer of doom…but I can’t be!
NO!
I want to continue, in spite of all my own problems in life I want to be!
I love it here!
And no one and no thing has any right to change that for me or you!
Smile in the face of doomsday!
Change your mindset and then your mind and all will follow!
And if not…
You will perish in your own negativity of thinking and be all alone for others with positive thinking will survive and go on, and on, and on… but there is one thing that you can do…


Do you want to know what that is?

CHANGE YOUR MIND! It’s easier than changing your clothes or living situation, and it doesn’t hurt at all…!

Yep that’s all there is to it…. How about that?

Now that I have solved the problems of the world I can sigh a big sigh of relief and say as Marlo Thomas once said years ago, “Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of your life!”
PS: I say, so is each day.

Sure, why not?

On that note of why I love you guys and want to help somehow with this wee brain of mine, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you kindly to count all those blessings you have and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
