No Arms, No Legs, No Problem!

It’s always great when we can sit down and turn on the tube and see what is going on in this world of ours. Well, I won’t depress you with all the talk of war, econonmy, pollution, gas prices, heat, politics and of course crime. But this isn’t even the greatest tragedy. I know you might feel depressed already. Please forgive me. Instead of being completely pessimistic,(remember I am a very positive person) I do want you to remember what my first statement was,”It is always great to sit down and turn on the tube.” How great is that! For who? Well, for you if you get the time to sit down. I know many people are either working 9am-9pm or they have two jobs covering even more time. Kids are either away at camp or home now to start school. Same story different year. The bottomline is this is your life right?  How is it that a person can go from rags to riches or even yet, riches to rags? Yet, this happens everyday. It seems as if you can go 100 mph without seeming to have moved an inch. You are where you were 5 years ago, or even 10 years ago. Now, I promised I would be pessimistic, however, did you ever stop to think, how great it all is? How worth it is to be going to the same ole job, with same ole pay and the same ole bills! Now, I know your asking where’s the optimism Bob? Be optimistic about this, Your moving forward. Yes, maybe at the pace of a snail or a turtle, but your moving forward!  Better yet, if you do want to move like a rabbit, then do it. Make that change. Take a different job. Leanr a new hobby. Listen to different music. Move to a different city. I was getting my haircut today and my barber said I have always wanted to move to Wyoming. I said, do it! Who cares that your 64 years old. Do it! Move forward to somewhere you always wanted to go or do something you’ve always seen your self doing. Work where you’ve always wanted to work. This world is a big world. It’s not going to visit you, you visit it. And not from your TV,  but actually go and find a way to get there. Don’t be a pessimist and say, but how? You know how? Better yet, if you truely want to make a change, it may be easier than you can imagine. More than anything it will be the most difficult thing you do. Is it worth it? Well, is it?? Times are a changing,… are they for you?
