I'm going to start off this posting with bad news, good news and more bad news. The first bad news is, there's stress everywhere you turn. You can't avoid it. You don't have to accept it, but you can't avoid it.
And most of it caused by a place just north of here (NC) called Washington, DC. Have you noticed that? High gas prices, the dollar shrinking, illegal aliens taking over the country, fighting a war that we should not be in, politicians taking money from Lobbyists and voting their way and not ours, it all causes stress in our lives.
But we have to take the blame for it because we are the ones who elected the politicians who are in Washington creating all this stress. Their lives are stress free. They live in a different world than we do. And we're paying for that world and that creates more stress in our lives.
We don't just need to vote for a politician, we need to follow them into Washington and make sure they do what they said they were going to do before they were elected. They know that once they get elected we are going back to our jobs and our lives and that's going to leave them open to do whatever they like. And, apparently what they like is creating stress in the voters lives.
You need to be more careful about who you vote for.
The good news is there is humor all around you too. Everywhere you turn it's there. The more bad news; we don't see the humor, we only see the stress. We're programmed that way. You need to re-program yourself to see the humor and not the stress. Then your life will be so much better.
Worrying about how things are will only make matters worse. It never ceases to amaze me at what people do to get over stress. They smoke, they drink, they binge eat; all of which causes more stress in their lives.
All you need to do is see the humor in life and enjoy living more.
