Answering a question

Someone who I see all the time lately, asked me how I always seem to be positive and happy. I have never been asked that in my life! It's something I started a couple of months ago. After my birthday fiasco. I answered to the best of my ability what it is I do. We had the time.

I gave it a lot of thought at that time and did a lot of reading. I took all that I was thinking about and read and came up with my own approach to life that starts when I wake up in the morning, and I stay aware of until I go to bed and fall asleep. It's a work in progress, I haven't fully mastered it yet, but it won't be long before it's just part of me, automatic, like breathing, or blinking my eyes.

I still have slips and flip people off in traffic, or give someone the stink eye when they mouth off about something they know nothing about. But, when I do it, I instantly know I shouldn't, so I am becoming more aware. And that's a big part of it. Awareness.

Tonight I'm tired and can't really get into it. I will post a blog about it. It's kind of hard to explain in words. And like I said, it's the way I do things, and probably won't work for anyone else. And NO, it's not a cult and I didn't see an image of Jesus on my toast. But that would be cool, Jesus toast goes for big bucks on eBay.

First Blog


As long as I joined I should probably blog. I joined initially to read and comment on posts in a bike club. I also do a daily blog on myspace, which went over it's 30,000th viewer. Not sure why so many people like to voyage into my daily life. I do a lot of photoblogs, maybe that's why.


I also time this evening after my nightly ride looking at various styles of cruiser bikes. After what I saw on Saturday nights ride, I really want one. I currently ride a TREK 830 mountain bike. I bought it when I was in the Navy at it traveled to 33 countries with me. I couldn't ride in all of them, but I had it ready for the ones I could ride in.


Well, I'm off to watch a movie.
