Why waste a perfectly good day



Let’s put it this way, every day is too good to waste. I have heard people say I am glad that this day is over or days like the one I just had drive me up a tree. You know something these people are feeling sorry for them self. That’s too bad because they are probably the only one that feels sorry for them. In my esteem opinion they are just wasting their time.

The only reason you think and I mean think you had a bad day is because you haven’t look at what you learned from what you thought was a bad day.

Just think you more than likely could have learned some very good things on how to improve the things that caused what you thought was a bad day.

Now I must say if you fell down the stairs and broke you leg, that might qualify for a bad day at first glance, but if you look deep down at the root cause for you fall you will find the answer could it be you had a little too much to drink or you were goggling at some beautiful young gal picking up something?

By looking into the root cause you might say I am drinking too much or I really need to pay attention to where I am walking, though she sure was cute. You have to stop that and work at the root problem, because every day is prefect day. But you keep messing it up. You should be ashamed of yourself.

If you keep doing things like the ones mentioned above you’ll blow my every day is a perfect day theory. So stop doing those things. However, I still know that every day is a good.

Back to everyday is perfectly good day. The most important reasons to appreciate every day is because we are only given so may day in our life and though we don’t know how many there is a limit number. You can mess up a day but is still a good day, because you still here.

As my Dad always said you want to have birthday because the alternative is no day at all. You don’t want that so enjoy every day and treat every day as a perfectly good day, your life will be better for it.

Happiness with wealth to you

Lesson 1 in the DHL stay in shape fitness program



Let look at swimming. Now if you live where it gets real cold swimming every day can be a problem, on less you have access to an indoor pool. Why am I complicating this and just get on with swimming as part of a fitness program.

Swimming is good for rehabilitation after surgery, weight loss and relaxation. This sounds pretty good for starters. Swimming works all the muscles and gives similar results to walking or running, without adding stress to knees, ankles, legs and the back. Swimming is sounding better and better
.
Swimming is a low-impact exercise that's even suitable for pregnant women, experts say. The near weightless feeling of being in the water helps strengthen shoulders and abdominal muscles. Swimming strengthens the heart, which improves delivery of oxygen to muscles.

If I didn’t like to swim, all the pluses would turn me on. There is more for you that might think swimming is your couple of tea. Look at this, swimming helps decrease problems associated with diabetes, asthma, high blood pressure and allergies.

Ok all this sounds good, now here are some funny things you can do if you get bored while swimming. That is why I don’t like to swim, because I get bored. What I am going to tell you might take some of boringness out of swimming.

Ask people if they have seen your pet shark or laugh at fat people in swimsuits. Now that last one is real bad so I won’t try it.

If you live up north and want to swim in the lake, be careful when cutting the hole in the ice, but do make the whole large enough so swim a little. Oh, be sure to bring lots of blanket for when you get out.

Let recap, one swimming is a very healthy thing to do, two if you like to be bored it could be your best way of being fit. Swimming is not for me, but it may be for you.

Later I’ll cover more ways to stay fit as a fiddle. So stay tuned.

Happiness with wealth to you

Good friend help make a good life



If we take a good look at our friends we will see a lot of us in them. For sure were not exactly alike, but there are lot of things we have in common.

I have my golf buddies. Every Wed. we play golf. After golf we tend to rehash the game. The line goes something like this. “Doug do you remember on 15 that approach shot I put within 2 feet of the pin” and he might say” GREAT shot” and the conversation goes on and on, with each one of us going over the good and the ugly.

We all have special friends. They are the ones that we have all the confidence in that they will do anything for us. When we have these kinds of friends life’s issues that sometimes seem over whelming become less of a problem, with their support.

Support from friend is not a lecture, but a patient ear to hear our issues that at the moment seem bigger that they really are. When they take the time to listen it amazing how the problem just melts away.

Isn’t it a wonderful feeling for having friend that care and are willing to help us and it even better when we can help and listen to them? Can you see the cycle that happening, they give to you by listening and caring, you do the same for them.

When you and your friends have this kind of relationship, you as well as them, will find life such a pleasant journey.

When our journey has great friendship it so easy to give and receive. Yes receiving because if we don’t know how to receive we are impeding life’s wonderful cycle of love. When we are in the state of love many amazing things continue to happen around us.

Why not try it. Listen to a friend, care for others and when given a gift of any kind take it with an open heart, you life will be better for it.

Happiness with wealth to you

The DHL diet that is guaranteed to work, maybe



Micki every week get this woman’s magazine that has a diet in it that is sure fired way to lose weight. Then on the next pages they have all kinds of tasty looking pictures of deserts and with the recipes.

After a little investigation of these sure fired diets it was easy to see that were just plain old fashion low calorie diets dressed up to look real tasty. But they couldn’t fool me, the master of all diets.

I can honestly say that because I have read almost every diet book that has ever been written. The old joke is I should have eaten the book because they are non-fattening.

Back to the diet at hand, my diet. As I said I guarantee this diet maybe. So are you ready? I am so we are one our way.

Let’s start with breakfast.

1 cup of a whole grain cereal

½ cup of no fat milk

1 cup of blue berries (that is because they are suppose to stimulate brain)

Table spoon of cinnamon

1 half cup of low fat yogurt

1 very whole grain cracker

1 table spoon of low fat soft fake butter

Rinse this all down with some non’ caffeinated green tea (I prefer it iced)

Between breakfast and lunch have a few nuts (I prefer almonds)

Now for Lunch (his is easy)

1 ceaser salad with grilled chicken

Again for a in between snacks have a few and I mean few nut (I prefer almonds)

It is dinner time this is not difficult

1 grilled 8 oz piece of Salmon or other fish. Turkey or chicken works

As much as you want of fresh green vegetables (I prefer broccoli)

I small salad with olive oil and vinegar

All day drink lots of water (prefer decaffeinated green tea on ice)
For a snack before bed tim,e how about nuts (I prefer almonds)

That’s it. No guarantees, but it works for me.

Here is one way to stay young



No you don’t have to buy anything, but you will have to take time to do it. Most people will love doing it. In fact though it might be tiring, but when you’re finished you will feel great.

No it is not what you’re thinking about though that certainly is healthy for you. What I think is one way to stay young and that is be around kids, yes kids.
Spend time just watching them. They are so relaxed and they seem to never stop moving, that is till they collapse.

Second listen to them. If they are too young to really speak, listen anyway. You will hear the beginning of a person developing right in front of you. Then it starts to happen they can speak and they never stop.

My granddaughters favorite word for awhile was grandpa. She sat next to me at lunch and just kept saying grandpa this, grandpa that. I loved every minute of it.
Just giving kids a big hug helps you stay young. They hug back as if you are the most important thing in the world.

Watching them explore the world brings back so many good memories. To them everything is new and has to be studied and not just a little bit but giving ,what ever, a total examination, but when their done evaluating the whatever, that is it. Then it is on to something new.

Here is the best part for me. Getting down on floor and playing with them. They will climb all over you, ride on your back and know they can pin you down if they wanted to. Moms don’t particularly like this because you get the little ones higher than a kite and it is really bad when it is near nap or bed time. But what the heck I am leaving shortly anyways

Being around kid is diffentily something that keeps you young, so do it all you can.

Something special



Micki and I went to a special party last night. Our good friends, Linda and Mike, were celebrating their 25th wedding anniversary. What made the party so special is both our friend are the nicest people in the world. When you’re with them they make you feel so good.

They did not invite cast of thousands, but friends that had played an important part of their lives. One of the special friends was the person who married them. He is a very interesting guy and in his toast he let them know that their marriage will last, because he took their marriage license and put in his safety deposit book, so there would be no way for them to separate. You know a CPA can’t be to careful.

How about this, they have been going out to dinner with the same people every Thursday night for over twenty years and it all started at this chicken place. So they call themselves the Chicken group. The funny things is the chicken restaurant that they always went to has been torn down for years, but that didn’t stop them they just found another place to have dinner together every Thursday night.

Mike and Linda both love to fish. Will let’s put it this way Mike loves to fish and Linda l if she wanted to be around him she had to love fish to.

That is the way they are almost always together. There are a few exceptions. One is when Mike goes fishing with his fishing club and when Linda goes to visit her sister and brother. Don’t think that Mike doesn’t like to visit her sister and brother, but sometimes he just can’t go.

It would be so easy to go on and on about the great stories of Linda and Mike, but I’ll close this by saying, it is my hope, if you’re married, that you can have a relationship as loving as Linda and Mike.

Friends


Friends
We all have friends and some are closer to us than others, but that doesn’t matter friends are an important part of our lives. Without our friends our lives would be pretty empty.

Good friends will listen to us when we need to talk and it doesn’t really matter what we are talking about. We can go on and on and a good friend just keeps listening.

From time to time they ask a question, but they make sure that we keep on track on whatever it is we’re talking about. When we finish, if they are a good friend, they normally say something like “I understand how you feel” without a long lecture on why you should or should feel the way you do.

A good friend will go some place with you even if they weren’t going there. Partly because they like being around you and partly because they had to be some place so not be with you.

A good friend is great to have a good time with. It might be going to a party or they just stopped by to catch up on what is happening in your life.

Now with your good friend you have to do the listening from time to time. This is important and I mentioned it earlier, but I have to re -enforce it, you don’t lecture to a good friend. You can give you opinion, but not in the form of you are telling them that you have the answers and your right and that is that.

Good friend are to be chariest. Though we have many friend we can only have a very few good friends, so do all you can to keep the flame lit in your friendship with them.

Happiness with wealth to you
