I get the fact that each generation through this society, should be better than the one of the past, but at what cost are we really paying, when we buy our way into anything, without working hard and paying the dues as we should? With this latest scandal of the paying big money to get your child into an elite college, who are the ones really being hurt here? It’s the ones that were rejected because someone paid big dollars to get their child in, without even working hard to be accepted into that college. The ones that were rejected may have just done everything right and everything as they should, but because someone has money, doesn’t give them the right to jump ahead of the pack, just to give their child the prestige, or the right to claim a higher status over their Peers.

Going to college wherever that may be, should be respectful and full of knowledge, for whom ever the person is that is going. College should yes be a fun time for any student, as well as teach our children, just how to work hard and when you work hard, life will reward you with big rewards. You think those children whose Parents bought their way into the elite college, will work hard for their knowledge? Exactly!!! They are going to think that you can buy anything in life, plus they are going to party everyday, instead of working hard to achieve great things, as they walk their paths through this journey of life.

I agree we all deserve some breaks from time to time, but only because you have worked hard for what you have, or for where you are? But when you buy your way into something only means one thing and one thing only, you simply have cheated the system and robbed someone else, for trying to help themselves and move forward, so they to can live the dream and earn respect with every step. We all have dreams, we all have hopes, but when you buy into something, now your shattering all hope and destroying any dreams away from another, while you are only thinking of yourself and no other.

Life doesn’t have to be about any status, nor does it have to be about money, although………… Yes you need money to pay the bills and live, but really now, life really is about being happy, peaceful and sharing your love and compassion with each other. the money is only extracurricular and by no means do we truly need it, just that in this society full of greed, we have come to attached to it, which has divided us, instead of bringing us together within the love and joy, that Jesus Christ brought to each of us everyday. Money may buy us material things, money may help us cheat and jump ahead of each other, but money will never buy true happiness, money will never buy us love, as love is already within each of us, we can’t take the money with us when we depart this journey, so why are we so hell bent on trying to acquire all the money?

” The only status in life that should matter, is your status with Jesus Christ, to keep the faith with great hope always”

” Instead of trying to show off to others with our wealth, may we try showing off Jesus Christ , for the true love and happiness always”

” College is good to be there for the right reasons, but not just to achieve a status”

Bright colors with the shorten days

The brisk days of Autumn so welcome from the summers heat,

As the days get colder the light of day becomes shorter,

The morning dew eventually gives way to the morning frost,

as the colors of the leaves get so vibrantly bright upon the tree’s,

The red’s the yellow’s mixed so beautifully with the evergreens,

Let’s not forget the the white of the Birch tree’s,

Autumn is definitely the most picturesque of the seasons,

With Autumn comes the exhaling of the tree’s,

to get ready for the long cold of the winter months,

As the tree’s exhale the air gets chilly with us in sweater’s,

Plus with the exhaling the leaves get crisp…………..which,

Eventually has the leaves leave the comfort and warmth of the tree,

Only to fall to the ground as the tree then goes into hibernation,

A tree with no leaves may look very bare,

as the tree still has some life deep within that woody exterior,

To some they may call Autumn fall? There really is no difference,

It is the same time of year within the same season and,

right before winter then right after summer.

Autumn may follow summer  but is the pre-curser to winter,

The cool brisk days of Autumn gets us ready for the cold of the winter,

As we ourselves get consumed with cabin fever,

From the staying within the walls of our homes,

Instead of stepping outside surrounded by Mother Nature,

Which then gets us excited for the season of Spring.

 

” The four seasons of the calendar, will have us always survive through one to get to all the others”

” Cooler days brings bright vibrant leaves within the crisp air that exhales”

” With the tree’s being bare, leads to Mother Nature covering them with the white winter blanket”

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Road less traveled

The road less traveled or maybe the lonely road? Either way it is a road with zero traffic and zero drama within this journey through life. The road in this picture is as rural as rural can get, where the biggest thing to worry about is, watching out for the wild life, that may come to the road to cross to the other side. Where as all the roads in the cities you have to worry more on, watching the other driver, to not slam into you. Driving these lonely roads will have you truly see the true beauty around you, look deeply into what you see, as what you will see, just may be very different from what you are used to seeing.

The one thing we have gotten away from in this Society is, to truly go out and explore what is around you, go out and travel these lonely roads, see everything that is around you and not just, what is on our usual route or path. Okay true these roads do get driven on from time to time, but with all the busy lifestyles and some who may be afraid, to venture away from their comfort zones, these roads become so lonely that the wildlife will walk them, with no fear of being hit very often.

Just like these lonely roads, we to can become lonely or isolated for many reasons throughout our journey, the difference between the roads and us is, we are a living breathing thing the road is not. We have feelings deep within us, the road just lies there waiting for its next traveler. When our feelings get hurt, we hurt real pain, which then has us hiding within ourselves and isolating ourselves from all that is around us. Even as the road gets driven on, with no feelings the road still lays there as if nothing is there. The road less traveled is not really a lonely road, where when we are lonely or isolated with no one or thing around, now we can hurt real pain from our feelings, but when we get hurt more than we like, now we have to worry about something totally different and that is, numbing our feelings deep within us, where now we can become like the road and feel nothing with no pain.

Being lonely and isolated for us, is totally different than that of the road. Way too often we get lost within the loneliness and lose our way, we bury our true feelings deep within, as to not become hurt with real pain, when we do this we then, become someone for who we truly are not, so we can try to look as normal as normal can be. Being lonely and isolated will come with a price, but driving on the road less traveled and exploring, or truly seeing the beauty all around you is priceless, there is a huge difference between the two, which you will never see, unless you look deeply into what you see. We all will think we feel lonely and isolated, but we will never feel anything as our true feelings have been buried so deep that, we have numbed ourselves to all that is around us, which now has us just wandering , instead of walking our paths through this journey of life, to be better and stronger.

 

” Is the road really lonely or is it just lieing there as still as still can be”

” To go out and explore means to truly get out of your comfort zone and see new things”

” Feelings are deep within us all, even at the times when we numb ourselves from these feelings to escape the pain and hurt.

 

 

The Broken Trust

Trust is a sacred bond we have with each other, real trust is a way we grow and move forward, better and stronger along this journey of life. When the Trust becomes broken, it leaves us with feelings of emptiness, loneliness, or even maybe thinking we are alone, against everything/everybody else.

This tree has been chopped down by the strong powerful teeth of a Beaver, now even though this tree was very vibrant and alive, it roots are still in tact within the ground, although the tree may die simply because it has been disconnected from it’s roots. This is the feeling we all go through when our trust has been broken with each other. Now unlike the tree, we as Humans and when our trust in each other has been broken, we can rebuild our trust just by keeping the faith in our strong roots. This process of rebuilding our trust can be a very long one, but it is never lost, only has been lost as we struggle, with the fact that there are some that will take advantage, or do things that break the Sacred bond of the trust.

The sad reality of the Society for which we all live is, you will always come across some who will think nothing of hurting another, simply by destroying the trust within us, so we can’t trust anymore. Trust is not something we should take very lightly, because when it becomes lost, we all hurt deep within our souls. We may not put our finger on the loss of trust and because of that, we then struggle with all we do within the paths we walk through this journey of life, we struggle with the loss of trust, simply because we internalize it and then we either don’t want to understand it, or we just suppress everything deep inside, to the point we neglect our true feelings and emotions.

The Beaver might of knocked down this young vibrant tree and even with the strong root system below the ground, this tree will then die and not breathe the fresh air of life, this does not mean we as Humans have to die when our Sacred bond of Trust has been broken. True we will struggle with any broken Trust, but when we stay true to ourselves, always stay connected with our true feelings and emotions, never lose the faith in our strong roots that help us grow, truly understand why we struggle and how the loss of our Sacred Trust will make us feel. The loss of anything will bring us some degree of hurt, but if we let the loss define us, then the pain and hurt will affect us very deeply, We all walk a path through this journey of life, we will also go through many tough times that will bring us much pain, but none more than the loss of our Sacred Trust with each other, as we then will feel like we have been chopped down like this tree, and then struggle trying to move forward to be better and stronger, This journey of life already has many ups and downs, so if we can limit the amount of the downs, then just maybe we all can walk our paths in peace and happiness moving forward.

 

” Trust is a sacred bond we have with each other, just sad for some to take advantage of that bond”

” The Beaver chops a tree as a part of his journey through life, like we all do something different for our journey we walk throughout life”

” Trust is never broken it is simply broken in need of a major fixing”

” We all have something we hold sacred throughout our lives, we all share the sacred bond of trust we have with each other”

 

You can’t fool Mother Nature…………….

by bowlingchef, posted in bowlingchef, president, psychology, real change, therepist, weatherman

Mother Nature is real, no matter what you think and feel, Mother Nature is what gives us our four seasons. Think of it this way, in our government we have the President and he brings in people around him, to handle all the different departments, well God is the President of the planet Earth and Mother Nature is….. lets just say her title would be, the head of all four seasons and weather secretary.

To be able to get to summer we have to endure the winter and spring, then from summer we go through fall back to winter, with each season we have different kinds of weather events to go through and during the winter a snow storm is one of those events we have to endure, there is no way around it and no way for us to control these events, only just ride the ride, endure the storms as the sunny days will come, ” you have to experience the storms, so at the times of sunlight you can enjoy the happiness”.

Within our Society we have the Weatherman who comes to us via the news, with all the changes in technology he/she is able to warn us of up coming weather events, but they can’t truly predict or make these storms go away, we just simply have to learn to adapt and endure, so we can be ready for whatever Mother Nature may bring.

Just as Mother Nature changes from event to event, the Weatherman’s technology will change and also us as Human Beings of this Society. Real change takes time, we are creatures of habit and don’t like change of any kind, most change comes with much pain and when we feel this pain, we will do anything to relieve ourselves from this pain, most of the time we suppress this pain, ignore the change and try to continue our journey of life as easy as we can. Some may think of change as not putting milk in your coffee? Real change is a lot deeper than that, real change is when something bad happens to you, you change your lifestyle, so this never happens again. When you do change your lifestyle it doesn’t happen over night, even though in this Society we are trained that everything needs to happen now? Real change is in most cases three to six years, but depending on the event, it could take considerably longer? When you do accept real change and work very hard to make it work, you will find that you become even more happier, than the sunlight on a warm summer day.

Our comfort zone is another way of saying we are creatures of habit, we get into these comfort zones cause it keeps the pain of our troubles from us, just like Mother Nature brings us the storms and we complain about it, think of it as she is keeping this pain real for us, so we move forward into real change and become better and stronger than we have ever been. Everything happens in our lives for a reason, it is up to us to find that reason, so we can walk our paths along our journey of life, in peace and happiness while we endure any storm that may try to derail us from our paths. Technology may help the Weatherman in forecasting the storms of Mother Nature, but real change is what we all need, in order to find the reason of what happened to us, so our journey through life doesn’t have to be hard, doesn’t have to bring us to the hate and temptation of Satan, but simply bring us to a world of happiness and feel the warmth of God within our hearts and souls.

” Mother Nature may not be real for us, cause we don’t let ourselves accept real change into our lives”

” Real change may hurt some more than others, but through real change we can all be in peace, while we become happier and showing more love of each other”
