circumcision and semi-automatic guns
If there was a secret and easy method to live life and not experience the stress, headaches and other sundry of emotions that the living experience, the keeper of the secret could make a bundle selling it as a manual. Yes I’m sure a few readers are thinking there is the Bible, Koran, Das Kapitol, Torah and whatever the middle eastern zealots read. No they are not a good example. Forget the middle easterns…it appears they are currently not happy and nor do I believe in their history have they ever been too happy. Well except for when you see them burning American Flags and shooting semi-automatic weapons in the air to celebrate whatever event it is that a group of people gather with semi-automatic guns to celebrate. What life event would that be exactly? Is it the protocol for circumcision, loosing a tooth, divorce, marriage, birthday?
I often experience stress. Tight shoulders, tight and sore jaw, cranky attitude aimed towards those who I love most. Thats how I roll. I hate stress and my negative for many reasons. Any moron can figure out why they respond to stress in their own certain way. Some read the bible, gamble, use drugs and alcohol, meditate and use violence, pray, sex, tv and the gym. Some do all of the above. Some do a couple. Many do none of the above. Some may talk about how they think and how they feel. This is generally the last option for me. I like to generate solutions on my own. I don’t like the idea of listening to other people and their advice. It never seems to hit the mark because I rarely express exactly what I think or feel. It seems I speak in generalities leaving the potential sage/listener/priest/friend without all the info they need to reach me in times of need.
The question is how much would you or I pay for a book that would solve the sundry life problems, thoughts and feelings that can plague the human condition. My question would be “Do you take credit cards?”
