Feeling overwhelmed is quite common

Sarcasm on Facebook
Yesterday, a friend’s FB update.

 

When we feel overwhelmed…there is no perfect answer, except this:

Be grateful you are alive to experience an imperfect world.

The picture is an excuse maker’s crutch.

Vibrancy is it’s own reward, no matter how long you live, or don’t live.

The differences are absurd

Note Ellie wrote to Carl in the Disney Movie UP
Better late than never, even if you have to go solo.

 

Can’t and won’t are not the same argument.

Makes more sense when we read them in a sentence:

  1. I can’t love God.
  2. I won’t love God.

The first stems from excuses.

The second comes from selfishness and pride.

It is not a sin, nor self-absorption

Most of us skip this step because it seems to go against the very thing we are trying to do.

Love others.

Love yourself first or you will never unleash your full potential.

Feeling guilty about feeling so good?

Ever feel guilty for feeling great?

Crazy thing though, the problems challenges faced in midlife are bigger than in our previous decades.

What’s different is our wisdom, strength, and patience to manage the stuff that’s in our control.

Self confidence grows through strenuous self examination.

It’s our job to master this and hone what works best for us.

Self examination can be steadily grown, even accelerated. Writing and speaking help.

And what helps even more is the time consuming preparation required to write and speak authentically.

How i do it and how you do it could be polar opposites.

Pretty cool huh?

Overwhelmed, disorganized or not interested.

These three when coupled with easy access to being medicated, entertained and distracted, is what ruins our spirit.

Then what?
