What do you support?

I've been reading a lot of local blogs and I find many of them compelling.

I've enjoyed reading the sociological discussions. Some have been over my head,and hence, a wonderful learning opportunity. I've been very grateful for that.

A lot of blogs I've read have been ranting and raving about what's bad, what will never work, what we're against...is anybody FOR anything? If things aren't working, does anyone have a possible solution to the problem? Or is everybody an idiot, a d-bag, a moron, a failure, an obstacle to your happiness or convenience?

I am going to try to go about my business, all week, without complaining. If something needs to be handled, I will bring it up in the most positive light possible and try to come up with a solution or two before I begin talking about it.

Developing.

Personal Responsibility.

If you're over 18, use some. If you're a minor, parents--teach some.

Seem simple? It is.

Appearances

I'm middle aged. I look like a middle aged woman. I'm shaped like a middle aged woman. That is what I am here to experience at this stage in my life. The middle part.

I've heard people say "40 is the new 30". I don't want to be 30. I've already done that. I want to experience 45. Just the way I am.

Why do we argue with reality? Why do we chase every experience except the one that is before us?

I celebrate being a woman. I celebrate my hard earned wisdom. I wear a bindi jewel on my forehead. It's there among the wrinkles and laugh lines.

I celebrate being middle aged.
