A possible helpful agenda
The focus of this BLOG is our new agenda. I was reading some of the other BLOGS on JOEUSER. The thought that can to my mind is that many of us may be nothing more than whining cry babies.
In effort to not be another finger pointer, I have sat down and thought about what we should be doing being that we see things the way we do in this society.
The first, thing I think most of us need to work on is our bad attitude. I can see how living in a world where all the media messages are negative that we would have a big negative attitude.
The truth is that it is not all bad. Another truth is that been frustrated by what we think is wrong is not going to fix any problem.
What will contribute to solutions is action.
I hope people start to recognize the value of voting and being involved. After, checking our bad attitude, I think the next most important step is we need to focus on not just criticizing politicians and politics and actually making a contribution.
The next step is to get in touch with our lives and have the life we want.
The next step is family. If you are married and have kids, hopefully it is a pleasant experience. If not, make that your goal. Interpersonal relationships are not hard.
We make them hard when we allow our hang-ups to dominate our spirit. Watch. See the sky is not falling. The people we grew up with ingrained our fears in us.
The reality is that no matter what fears they put in us our world is not going to fall apart.
We have the ability to smile and look towards the good and we have the ability to obsess on the bad.
I say this because I believe what keeps people from enjoying their marriage and their children are all the hang-ups they acquired while they were growing up.
Here I am speaking about fear of intimacy, inferiority complex, and general selfishness and immaturity.
Now, if you had a choice between feeling sad and impotent or feeling happy and confident, which would you choose?
The reality is that there are to many people out there who have closed off their hearts and minds to marriage and parenthood.
In order for there to be a future I believe there has to be healthy families.
This is why I think three positive steps to make a positive contribution to our American society are checking our bad attitude, getting involved and voting, working at enjoying our family, and building a marriage and family if we are not married.
