Living along is what we are all doing, day in and day out. Now getting along, well, that is another thing.

There is a very useful tool most of us have been developing throughout our lives; a tool it seems, is becoming less and less necessary.

What goes around, comes around. Is this true?

How long have you known the person you most love? How long have the person who loves you the most, known you?

I remember my mother saying, “what people say about me behind my back, is none of my business”.

It is easy to criticize or, otherwise, ignore the trials and tribulations of others.

Do you care if you make a positive difference in the world…, or not? I pose this question to a certain group of people, and not necessarily you.

When was the last time something bad, did not happen to you?

I may be paraphrasing here. But who was it that said, “You don’t miss something until you lose it”?

I live by these words every day, and I share this quote every chance I get. However, I will be the first to admit that I do not always do my best. Most of the time I do just enough to get by, to get things to work, to live along. I’ve always been this way. Don’t ask me why. I don’t have a good answer. Belief in myself is another thing; a thing I do. It is what moves me to do the things I have done, this that I am doing right now, talking to you, and who knows what else I may get into.&n...

How was your day yesterday? How is today going so far? Do you think about how tomorrow will be?

Is it true that experience is a dear teacher? If it is, what does the teacher require of us?

It is something you hear at a funeral. He or she would want you to go on with life and be happy. What you don’t usually hear, is how. Is there a way?

You know, it is easy for us to think of Life as being too short. But how do you measure short? Is ten years short? How about 40 years? How about 65? Here is another question. When are we likely to say Life is too short? For me, it is when I am having fun. On the other hand, when does it seem life is too long? Again, for me, it is when I am bored, in pain or just having a bad moment. Granted. We all want to, at least, be ok…, and when we are not…, time could not fly by fast enough, right?

There are good memories and not so good ones. Good memories are wonderful thoughts about the good times, and it is all I want to talk about for now. I want to keep it positive. Reminiscing about a happy time can put a smile on your face and a warm feeling in your heart.

“I wish I had thought of that” or, “why didn’t I think of that” or, “it just didn’t come to mind”. Have you ever thought of, or said these words? Now, why is that? Is there a way to be more thoughtful when we need to?

When bad things happen to us, they get our full and present attention, and that is to be expected. We want the bad thing to go away, like… right now, this instant. But in some cases, it is not so simple, right? Sometimes we must prepare to endure the long haul. But, that does not mean however, that we must carry the weight for the long haul. As difficult as it may be, and at some point, letting go is the best way to go.

As you know, Time is the main theme throughout what I write and talk about. I also talk a lot about presence; a co-theme, so to speak. But most of the time, we talk about Time in terms of what we do in our daily lives, and for good reasons. This brings me to the quote of this day.

We are here on this earth to live in harmony with each other and mother nature. But over centuries it seems as though, harmony is no longer a worthwhile cause. I don’t know about you, but it is clear to me that we, as humans, are turning our backs on mother nature and relying more and more on unnatural ways to live; Modern ways, as they are called.

To start, let’s get another obvious out of the way. Tomorrow is not going to get here any sooner than it will, regardless how you may want to make it so.
