Have you ever noticed we are always talking about the past. Like how grandlma always made thos wonderful dinners or the best cookies? And how skinny we were back then? And how the world was a much better place? And how young we were and how wonderful we looked? then we wonder what happened and why did everything have to change? people died and we got fat and the world is at war with each other and we have crooks for government. And then we make all these promises to ourselves of how we are going to do this and that but for whatever reason we never get there. So does that makes us liers?
It’s funny how we always say “next year” will be better but in real life it is just the same. or worse. As for the future no one never knows all we can do is make an educated guess and do our best to change. And we can make all the plans we want but more times then not they always fall through the holes because we didn’t see it coming.
My question is why can we not just live and be for today? isn’t today the day we make happen and change? Isn’t today when the best of life is here and we can enjoy it? They say live for today like it’s your last day and you will be happier. And today we all know the facts and have the experiances to go on. And come to think of it it’s today that we say we hate this and we hate that and this person is going to fry and life is just so horrible. It is always the here and now. I think you have to go through life with agrain of salt and if you like what is happeening then change it to a grain of sugar. I think the things and events we have in life are what is suppose to happen because then it shows us how we deal with life. The good, the bad and even the ugly and we always learn a life lesson. And when we learn these lessons we can go on to the next one and then we become better people.
Here is another question for you? When something bad happeens to you like you get a disease like RA do you feel sorry for yourself or do you realize that maybe you created it and now you have to live with it? Or do you blame others for it? I think the reason we get all these things wrong with us is because our body is reacting to something we did to it and we forget what it was so the blame game goes on. Here is something…If you have diabetes do you blame yourself because you had too much sugar? Or do you just accept it and do what you can to make you feel better? When i get something that makes me not well, I try to get help to fix it and that usually works but it does take time. And then I try to avoid a next time.

Onto something else....

Yesterday hubby and I did some domestic work and we did very well because we make a great team. The big freezer finally got organized and the ice or most of it got taken out.(we don’t have a self defrosting freezer so we need to hammer the ice off evevry now and then. And we took an invetory of what we have and we are not going to be buyng anythng more till we have an empty frezer. I think all we are going to be buying is fresh fruit and vegetables for the time being. And hubby washed the bathroom floor and I swetpt the kitchen floor and the rest of the floors will get done today. And for dinner we are going to have something to do with groundbeef, not sure what but it will be tasty.
And today hubby gets to go to the dentist..lucky him.... and I will be doing some domestic work. Lucky me…

This is something my son wrote…What do you think?

Do have a great day…
Be Kind, Be Calm, Be Safe and Behave.

I try to not dwell on the past but it is a huge part of who we are so I agree... I always recall those special memories

It's really hard for a child of any age to listen to how life was back in the day as our gramdmas always said this is how you behave.
