Professional Wrestling Is Fake. Everyday Life Is The Real Monday Night Raw!

I love this quote from Brian Andreas, "She usually cried at least once each day not because she was sad, but because the world was so beautiful and life was so short." A billion plus two pictures invade the thought process without a split second to spare. The first reaction is run! The author's headline was the typical bait and switch. Are you willing to accept eighty dollars for a twenty? Hell yes! Yet I have to wonder if its real dollars and common sense. 80% of what you invest in; from discovering an interest to gaining the passion to knowingly being willing enough to reach out and beyond to learn more....is sacrificed for 20% of the greener grass on the other side of the white picket fence. No wonder the character Brian Andreas is writing about cries once a day! Baiting and switching isn't the Poet's finger print dipped in ink but a paperback novel based on a true story that deals with why the nicest people usually end up raining on the parade. 80% of the time it's like living next door to Mr. Rogers yet you've chosen to judge a friend, coworker or family member on 20% of their performance, which fell 80% short of the 20% available to give away. I'd cry too! Time means nothing to someone or something in constant demand. Being head of a codependency isn't the disease when you accept the responsibility of giving up 80% of what makes you happy for 20% of the rope needed to lower your body into the hole someone dug. Up they shoot! Off they run! And there you stand all 0% of you. I don't make this stuff up! Research shows 80% of everything you've invested in ends up being sacrificed for something based on a value of 20%. Having the identity of great strength, unconditional compassion and the availability to share it invites spectacular scenes of self designed heroic times but who saves you when human nature's proven 80% of what makes "you" is tossed aside by an odd thought, ambition, family tradition, temptation, dare, unspoken secret or fantasy that weighs in at 20%? "She usually cried at least once each day not because she was sad, but because the world was so beautiful and life was so short." It's too easy to think someone else's sadness is your glorification. The five human needs: 1. Physiological: breathing, eating water and in the words of the great Philosopher's Ace and TJ...piano playing. 2. Safety: security, employment, family, health 3. Love/Belonging: friendship and family 4. Esteem: confidence, achievement and respect 5. Self actualization: creativity, spontaneity, acceptance and problem solving. Ohhhhhh! There it is! Acceptance and problem solving! I whipped out the golden halo of rulers and compasses and performed an incredible measurement of space and damn if that section of the Top 5 Human Needs isn't 20% of everything! What are we supposed to do? What is the proper way to react? How do Preachers, Ministers, Councilors and Psychologists deal when their next meal is fed on the guarantee of willingness to let go of their 80% for 20% of a different book? If you don't react does that make you evil? When she usually cries at least once each day not because she was sad, but because the world was so beautiful and life was so short, what should be the accepted behavior on a planet known for its oh my God moments that steal your breath? You need your lungs to work! It's one of the Top 5 Human Needs! If you don't react the need for acceptance it will falter like the Stock Market. If no emotions are shared then a lack of friendship and family means fewer presents under the Christmas tree. So we get creative, depending on spontaneity which leads to sacrifice. Need any pictures for that hole you can't get out of? I'm an ok Artist...it won't be Rembrandt or Peter Max but hey...it's a hole! 80% of what makes up your mind, body and soul doesn't give a flying "F" what I've blogged about. The weekend is just two days away and someone or something very close is biting at the bit to accept your 80% for their 20. Whatcha gonna do when the dog eats the other shoe? Becoming "aware" isn't a weapon but a powerful tool. Being "aware" of time robbers shouldn't force your feet to walk a different path but to accept them for who and what they have become. Shame not the person that begs for acceptance of family and friendship. Show them the rope. Toss it into the hole then walk away. 5. Self actualization: creativity, spontaneity, acceptance and problem solving...will set them free. I will always believe in you first...
