About Whining

For your consideration…..

Today’s message is about whining. Specifically it is about whining on Facebook. We don’t like to think about our Guidance being technology experts but they are experts in everything.

Here’s the deal today. If someone sends us something in protest without a real idea for solution and plan of action and we “like” it, we are perpetuating negative energy. We are adding to the world’s crap.

Here is an example I’m sure we have all seen. It is the one about Congress. Actually there are several of them all saying that Congress should have to follow the same laws, use the same healthcare, same retirement as the people they have legislated it for. It is just common sense and we know that was a foregone conclusion of our founding fathers. We probably all agree when we get these so we hit “like.” The problem is there is no concrete solution proposed. There are no action steps beyond hitting like. So we are just perpetuating the discord and negativity.

We are reminded again. For every action there is a reaction, positive or negative and that two wrongs don’t make a right. We may be right but unless we are ready to take positive action, hitting that “like” button is just negative whining. And HOPEfully we are beyond that. One thing we can do is only perpetuate positive energy.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…..

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Think before you “like.”

What made me smile yesterday…..

-A wonderful and productive morning at Stillwater.

-Surprising Bruce by getting home early.

-Great pictures of the Gordon’s new puppy and Alex’s vacation.

-Visiting with Jackie makes my ride home so short.
