LIFE’S TOO SHORT…
….to take it very seriously. And for the sake of those who are in the process of addressing a really crappy situation right now, let me add the words “all the time”. OK? Yes, there are times we all need to buckle down and do those things we need to do and perhaps face obstacles to our financial, physical or emotional well-being. Crap happens and we just gotta take care of it. If you’re in one of “those” situations right now, you might want to refer back to some of the many NuPathz blogs and articles to refresh the old memory bank on why some of this stuff may be happening and some possible ways to work through it.
But Leapin’ Lizards, Sandy (and recognizing the source of those last three words definitely substantiates your esteemed status as a member of the OFC – “Old Fart’s Club”), some folks even in decent overall conditions seem to put entirely too much effort into displaying and even reinforcing the seriousness of life. Sometimes these are folks who are just programmed to focus on all of the negatives that surround them – and of course, to them life appears to be an ever deepening cesspool of darkness and despair. Eeeewwww – what a yucky way to go through life!
Then there are other folks who have been led to believe that just because they have a rather serious job (as in being responsible for the well-being of a company, governmental agency, other folks’ safety, security or health) that this also requires them to continually wear a serious face and speak serious words. Nah, this doesn’t apply to all of these types of people of course. I’ve known a few “higher-ups” who were a real hoot to be around. Maybe the alcohol was a contributing factor in my developing this perception. (Just kidding….sort of….)
