It’s amazing how a much a worry can weigh on your shoulders. Not being able to reach a person you care about is like a lump of burning coal in your shoe. It just keeps on burning and gnawing at your thoughts and your heart. You try to remain positive, but sooner or later your thoughts just start to slide down into a dark place. Worry turns to angst and then fear. And finally, you…
Everything in life has two sides like the good and the bad, or the feelings that you have can be happy and sad. Each end of this spectrum is just a millisecond away, Like the storm that will suddenly appear and ruin your day. There are words that are tender and the light of your life, but others are so harsh that they cut like a knife. Time will pass and the hurt starts to…
We all have gotten rejected at a certain point or another in life, by people (friends, families…) or life events (interviewing for a job, bidding for projects…), losing ourselves when being rejected is dangerous to our very existence. Rejection, in any way, shouldn’t make you see yourself as a fault, never make you feel like you’re lesser. Rejection doesn’t mean you’re an outcast. Rejection doesn’t mean you’re not good enough, It just means the other…
Have you ever been around someone who has a tendency to get so wound up about particularly anything? They get in front of a slow car. They get cut off by another car. Somebody looks at them the wrong way or whatever and THEY JUST LOSE IT!! They get so riled up their faces turn beet red, they begin to sweat and shake. A couple of things… 1. Calm the “you know what” down 2. …
This is a slight adaptation as it was written four years ago, but it still applies very well to today… Ninety years, in the abstract, it sounds like more than enough for a lifetime. The changes that one would bear witness to in nearly a century, are nothing less than mind-boggling. Society, technology and even human interaction bear little resemblance to what they were in 1925. Born on this day in 1925, a man would…
The world is brimming with amazing things; breathtaking views divine food and drink and heart-stopping excitement. And all of this can be explained by or is created by science. Matter is manipulated to create what we want and the result is not only predictable but expected. The only wildcard in our universe has no image, no weight or size, nor does it hold a space on the periodic table- the list of all elements to…
I am not a numbers person in most aspects of my life. Words have always worked better for me in that they are more flexible. There is right and wrong in math, a sort of black and white world, but words seem to offer a vast greyness that I find comforting. But while reading a while back, I stumbled onto FIB Poems. These are a blend of words and numbers as the structure is based…
My grandfather passed away after an extended illness when I was five. He had spent the previous year in and out of the hospital due to complication from diabetes. So I am guessing that my only true memories of him coming to visit us at our house occurred when I was three or four. Even though I was very young, I can clearly remember going to the door with my mother and seeing Grandpa standing…
There is a very fine line between positivity and insanity, that can be almost indistinguishable to most of us. I believe that if you are reading See The Good, then you are a believer in projecting a positive outlook in order to always find that redeeming shred of good in even the worst moments, events and also people. But when does that worthy effort become little more than a pipe dream? And how many times…
‘’Everyday and in every moment of our lives, we are called to Love. Love is to be given to others in every situation we find ourselves in. In the good experiences and even in the difficult situations we are to give Love to others. It sounds easy… but it is not that easy to do. The Good News is that it is possible, that you give this Love to others. This is possible through the Love of Christ… the…
