Who got the keys to the world now?

Just a quick post tonight.

Play this ----> Pitbull

  Such a learning experience!  Let my guard down for two days, and got my ass knocked down to the bottom of the mountain.

  But i've seen the top, it's indescribable! So I hit the bottom, yet again.


But with this attitude:

"Ziggy Ziggy Ziggy ZOW! Who got the keys to the world now?"

Rule #1: Don't forget the rules!

Rule #2: Do good to others, ALWAYS.

  I have the keys to your world in my hand. My world too!  It's sooooo simple!

Keep climbing!!!!!

The Avalanche

Avalanche  <--right click that, open in new window while you read!

  Last blog I mentioned this positive attitude was like climbing a mountain.  Well, it is.  This song from the Butthole Surfers explains how my January has gone.

  I fell off the mountain.

  Some things out of my control happened, and I spent WAY too much time and effort on them.  Remember the rules? Things we have zero control over deserve and get zero of our thoughts and effort.  I forgot that rule.  And summa bitch, here comes the Avalanche.  I found myself at the bottom of the mountain, yet again.  But once I got over the self pitty, and being a "victim", I learned something.  A LOT of somethings!  First off, the ONLY one that lets me or you be a victim of anything is US!  I was a "victim" of some bad circumstances, but only because I let myself be a victim instead of looking for and believing in the positive.  I'm not a victim, however I was afforded an opportunity to learn something.

  Once I let myself become part of the Avalanche, it was literally a downhill snowball ride!

"I can taste you on my lips, and smell you in my clothes."  That's all about my wife.  I literally smell her on my clothes all the time, and her long blonde hairs are EVERYWHERE!  She constantly reminds me of her presence.

  So I'm at the bottom of the mountain, self doubt, self pitty, self, self self self self self. Get it?  It was all about me focusing on the negative that just happened.  So I metaphorically smelled Michelle in my clothes. It's NOT about me! At all!  Being negative and self absorbed solved nothing.  All it did was guarantee my position in the Avalanche, when all I had to do was step aside and say "No. Thank you though!"

  So here I am at the bottom of the mountain, shaking the snow off asking myself "What the F*<$ was that?"  It was a learning experience, that's what it was. So what am I going to do about it?

  I'm heading right back up that fucking mountain!  Thankful for the lessons learned!

  I won't call it "teaching", because obviously I'm still learning, but I'm trying to share this way of thinking, and being with you. It's NOT easy.  It IS worth it!

  This song says, "You never just know how you look through other people's eyes."  That way of thinking will get you to the bottom of the mountain.  I'll leave you with a quote from my man, Andrew Carnegie.

"What other people think of me is none of my concern or business."
