If one has the belief everything is connected, any wrong done to another is doing a wrong to yourself
guess that means, the joke is on you...


ExNameForUse replies on 2/28/2023 11:41 pm:
What goes around, comes around, both bad and good... maybe not from where you would hope for, but I strongly believe you cant be wrong with doing right.
About those others... karma can be quite tempered bitch.

“One day you'll eat your last meal, smell your last flower, hug your friend for the very last time."

If that thought doesn't hit you squarely between the eyes, I don't know what will.

When we're young, and think we're immortal, such thoughts don't really register with us.

Then reality sets in as we age, and we really appreciate such sentiments and can relate with them.

Especially as people we grew up with, whether persons we actually knew or public figures, pass on. Thanks for the reminder Ex. This blog is soooooo 'you'.

Thank you, Plz.
This is a constant thought in my mind when I think of the most important person in my life, my son.
I wont be here forever and while I am here I need to know that he knows he is loved, above all and above anyone else. No matter how life and circumstances may affect us.
I feel responsible for many others who are part of my life, and will give them as much caring and kindness as I can. Sometimes I think those who have hurt me the most, need that kindness the most.

I was brought up to believe "Its nice to be nice" and that is so very true.

I think the way you were raised is beautiful, and can bring so much joy to you and those around you.

What we do with our time is important, but what's more important is what we leave behind.
Do I have a show tune that says it better than I? Of course:
(from the musical version of "Goodbye Mr. Chips"):

n the morning of my life I shall look to the sunrise.
At a moment in my life when the world is new.
And the blessing I shall ask is that God will grant me,
To be brave and strong and true,
And to fill the world with love my whole life through.

In the noontime of my life I shall look to the sunshine,
At a moment in my life when the sky is blue.
And the blessing I shall ask shall remain unchanging.
To be brave and strong and true,
And to fill the world with love my whole life through

In the evening of my life I shall look to the sunset,
At a moment in my life when the night is due.
And the question I shall ask only I can answer.
Was I brave and strong and true?
Did I fill the world with love my whole life through?

Asking myself almost everyday... thank you very much for sharing this with me and us

Most times kindness takes so little effort it is easy to practice as a daily habit.

Like a good fitness program does for the physical, kindness does for the soul.

It really takes little efforts, cost us nothing, and can provide so much pleasure and comfort to everyone, both givers and takers

Doing the right thing doesn't leave you bad thoughts and regrets. Doing the wrong thing does.


ExNameForUse replies on 3/1/2023 12:09 am:
Sometimes when I lose temper or react impulsively, not giving myself time to cool down, think something through, take a deep breath... I feel later so so bad, almost sick... not to mention regret and guilt that can be overwhelming...

Live life as if it is your last day?
That must be soo terrible stressful, i cant even think about it.

Sometimes, when dealing with nasty folks, 'your' kinkness is wasted on those...
My neigbours are a living proof of that...


ExNameForUse replies on 3/1/2023 12:18 am:
I never woke up with that thought, like.. this could be my last day.. my first thought is actually 'I need coffeeee'
But there are moments in life when it occurs to me that it may be the last time I see someone, talk to someone, I have the chance to hug or kiss someone... it is when I see clearly what is important and whats not worth wasting our time for and do my best to make the most out of that time.

There will always be those ungrateful, never pleased, never happy. In which case I dont allow them to come anywhere near me.

You are welcome. I am glad you found it meaningful.
I, too, try to ask myself those questions every night.
Most of us men and women "of a certain age" don't make it to "that certain age" without the courage and strength to have overcome the adversities of life - love, death, loss, pain, illness - so, there's that. Some more than others, of course.
As for the third question, well, if the jokes I make here, or on other blogs, or to others in person, make someone laugh, or if the song lyrics I post generate a provocative emotional response (or maybe even a tingle between the legs, now and then), then I can say "yes," at least for that day.
Be well.
RB

Anything positive that we may cause to happen or someone to feel, makes that day worth getting up from bed
And we can all do that little something.
