circumcision and semi-automatic guns

September 4, 2006

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?”

    How would you truly enjoy the good, or even the REALLY good, if you didn’t have the really bad to compare it too? Don’t cut the stress and crap life throws your way completely. Just reduce it. That is what family and friends are for. No credit card needed. Just a little somethin’ somethin’ we like to hand out for free. (though occaisonally I toy with the idea of a book or even a magic rap of a wand to the forehead that would effectively reduce all stress and worries to nothingness)

    We have sponsors so we don’t have an idiot running our lives. Or do you speak in generalities to him too? I must admit that when it comes to the really important shit…..I’m just like you. dammitalltohell! I like challismt’s solution….a magic rap of a wond to the forehead that would reduce stress and worries to nothingness!

    My attitude is very similar. ‘My fucking problem, I’ll find the solution’. As my Mom (Sandra) is famous for saying, “Son, you can’t do it on your own.” Truer words have never been spoken. I don’t like to let go of things. I am worse than a dog with an old sock. I’ve always been that way, and I am getting worse as the years roll by. Do yourself a favor man, find that person you can talk to about shit. Mom is a really good one. She has helped me stay sane for 38 years. Although she has helped me get a little insane too. :-D
